Lyrics
Gotta get away from here
Gotta put some distance between me and this job
forget I'm part of this corporate mob
I'll go to New York City where all the girls are pretty
see my name on marquees
I'll drive on down to Georgia then on over to Florida
maybe the drive will relax me
I'll stop in Arizona for a couple of Corona's
I'll need them in that heat
Then off to San Francisco for a bottle of Bordeaux
to sip while gazing at the sea
Gotta get away here
Gotta put some distance between me and this work
before I go completely berserk
I'll fly to Paris, France where I'd love to learn to dance
maybe I'll grow a goatee
Tour the castles of Scotland and feel like a real man
hope a kilt looks good on me
Sail on down to the Equator and become an originator
of a cure for a disease
Then on up to the Antarctic with a rusty ice-pick to
do whatever I please
Gotta get away from here
Gotta put some distance between me and this place
last stop outer-space
Go see the moons craters in a giant elevator
and plant the first apple tree
Then it's off to the Mars and beyond all the stars
can't stop at this galaxy
Maybe I'll just stay home and spend some time alone
maybe practice my Tai Chi
I'll probably do nothing and stop my fussing
and sit in front of the t.v.
Gotta get away from here
