Off to the desert said tarzan of the apes
I'm sick of the usual cobra snake steaks
I'll be warm and dry, with no mozzies and flies
No rain for a year, what a pleasant surprise
I'll swop said the bushman for trees are so lush
And the shade of the forest in the heat is a must
I'll lie in a hammock and get drenched by the rain
The sand and the dunes are always the same
Oh give me a big house, a car and a boat
I've been struggling enough with a skip in the moat
I'll be happy with holidays, glamour and glitz
I'll be calm as a river if you take me to the ritz
I'll swop said the rich girl for contentment and love
You can have all my rings and even the gloves
Peace can't be bought with a large bank report
Alternative sources of pleasure will be sought
Consumers in malls with enticing stalls
Hypnotically searching for purpose
I have a list and I need this and this
I have plans, I have work and there's Christmas
Even king of the apes gets sick of grapes
And the aridman lives for the rain
Straight hair wants curly and bushy wants bald
Looking ever outward we get so bored
We are sitting on treasures too great to explain
We're alive and we still complain
Better to be dead cause I'm still not happy
How's your mind! Look around! Life's insane!
Walk away from the droll of the empty day
And just be yourself in a peaceful way
There are wonders to see, look for miracles in me
Make a difference in love……..you're enough(c) MgM
