Quick Escape

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Reconnaissance on the cornerIn the old world not so farFirst we took an aeroplaneThen a boat to ZanzibarQueen cracking on the blasterAnd Mercury did riseCame along where we all belongedYou were yours and I was mineYeah, yeahHad to quick escapeHad to quick escapeHad to quick escapeHadCrossed the border to MoroccoKashmir then MarrakechThe lengths we had to go to thenTo find a place Trump hadn't fucked up yetLiving life on the back porchLifting rocks to make a wageEvery sunset paid attention toNot a starry night went to wasteHad to quick escapeHad to quick escapeHad to quick escapeAnd here we are, the red planetCraters across the skylineA sleep sack in a bivouacAnd a Kerouac sense of timeAnd we think about the old daysOf green grass, sky and red wineShould've known so fragileAnd avoided this one-way flightHad to quick escapeHad to quick escapeHad to quick escapeHad (Uh-uh-uh-uh)
