Ben Folds - Adelaide lyrics
[Ben Folds - Adelaide lyrics]
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 Hill-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 ass goodbye
I'm in Adelaide adelaide
Adelaide adelaide
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 Hill-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 ass goodbye
I'm in Adelaide adelaide
Adelaide adelaide
