BEN FOLDS lyrics : "Adelaide"

Adelaide
On a plane
Far from the united states

Of LA
Dropping in from outer space
Takes a day

Now I see the Bogans
At the motor race
Here you know the world could turn

Or crash and burn
And you would never know it
Going where the air is clear

There's better beer in Adelaide

Charlie L. Smith's forty

Someone spiked my rice
The rest, history
Now I am a fixture down


Rundle Mall
Watching as the locals pass

Silver balls
I can see their eyes are round
They're pointed down

They scan the spanning sidewalks
Learning that there is no hurry
Fuss or worry

Adelaide

Ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah

It's raining

In Adelaide
A face is waiting in a window
A voice says

Why Adelaide
You could live anywhere and I say
Because I want to

Because I want to
I really really want to


And you know the earth could turn
Or crash and burn
And you would never know it

Really got to make it to the finish line
Get the record done on time
Pack the bags

And catch a flight
And you can kiss my $$# goodbye
I'm in Adelaide

Adelaide
Adelaide
Adelaide
