Going Abroad

As I sit by the pool of my best friends house,
My mind will wander
What the hell, am I still doing here
When I Could be yonder
Overseas in a reggae paradise
That would be nice
Under the shade of a swaying palm tree
Just seems so god damned perfect to me
Just to escape, to elope or to break free
Somewhere far away, far from Canberra preferably
Going Abroad, for a while
I'll miss the band and the girl I left behind
I hope you guys don't mind
Thought I was happy where I was
And I still am, don't ask me why it's just because
Going Abroad, for a while
Going Abroad, for a little while
Coconuts and novelty cups with umbrella's on the tops
I like them lots
No need for worries, no need to shout
I say what if, the Hokey Pokey's what its all about
Have I been wastin' my time, all of these years,
Wanting girls that I cannot get and, buying them beers?
To no avail, I always fail I say oh no,
I need to get out of here, for a while...
