I was picked up and then dropped off in a culture counter-clockwise turned around
|
Dug a hole in Southern Carolina - took me straight to China safe and sound
|
Donated my map to the lost and found
|
|
While working for a common cause I only got a kamikaze state of mind
|
This self defeating meeting of the minds is eating what was once so hard to find
|
|
But right then the clouds parted in the sky
|
The horizon took us all a little by surprise
|
Watch the sky
|
And as the howling winds subsided, the locals ran out, all waving their hands and singing:
|
|
Welcome to the island of the honest man
|
Do what you want - there is no need to impress us
|
Welcome to the island of the honest man
|
We don't believe in what the big people tell us
|
Wait here - stay here
|
|
I was picked up and then dropped off in a culture counter-clockwise turned around
|
Rolled a pair of dice in Paris that got me to paradise all safe and sound.
|
|
Stole my temper back from the lost and found
|
No longer needed to be seated on a sinking ship just waiting there to drown
|
Jump off now - jump off now
|
And as they lead us to their village, a thousand voices all started to sing out loud:
|
|
Welcome to the island of the honest man
|
Do what you want - there is no need to impress us
|
Welcome to the island of the honest man
|
We don't believe in what the big people tell us
|
Wait here - stay here
|
|
From the sunrise up above to the sunset below, they all sing
|
Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go
|
And all the people on the island they already know why they sing
|
Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go
|
From the sunrise up above to the sunset below, they all sing
|
Welcome in, welcome back, well come on let's go
|
And all the people on the island they all want to show why they sing
|
Why they sing, why they sing, why they're singing
|
|
Welcome to the island of the honest man
|
Do what you want - there is no need to impress us
|
Welcome to the island of the honest man
|
We don't believe in what the big people tell us
|
|
Welcome to the island of the honest man
|
This is the island of the honest man
|
Welcome to the island of the honest man
|
This is the island of the honest man
|
Wait here - stay here
|
|
I was picked up and then dropped off in a culture counter-clockwise turned around
