Emigrate

He'd like to go where nobody goes
to a place no one knows
hide away for sometime
walk the beach walk the streets maybe dine
get up in the morning and see the sun
say hello to everyone
have a swim have a drink and then dance the night away

But for now he's working at a dump
spends his days collecting peoples junk
but not for long

All he needs now is the fare
that'll get him there
and he can sit on a plane for hours
eat food straight out of the tin
throw up on the man sat next to him
and sleep through the movie

She wants to spend her days in the smog
had enough of the green grass
breathe some dirt, breathe some fumes
and the perfume in the air
she wants to live on the 25th floor
in a house with one more door
get up see the sun
and not speak to anyone

But for now she's helping on the farm
milking cows and cleaning up the barn
but not for long

All she needs now is the fare
that'll get her there
and she can sit on a plane for hours
read a boring magazine
have a few free drinks
and sleep through the movie
