In a Foreign Land

It was a matter of fact that when I paid all my tax

I held my world in the palm of my hand

And all of my debts were causing me to defect

To a land of bananas and sand

So I ran, yes I ran, yes I ran

To a foreign land

Here I am, here I am

Here I am in a foreign land

I'm so glad we made it I thought we'd never land

I grabbed all my cash and I decided to dash far away

Far away, far away in a foreign land

Here I am, here I am, here I am in a foreign land

Goodbye to all of the rich men's daughters

Goodbye to my debts now I'm way across the water

Far away, far away in a foreign land

Here I am, here I am, here I am in a foreign land

La la la la la la

La la la la la la

Please tell my mother and all my ex-lovers

That I've finally made the grade

Please tell my debtors and the money collectors

That all of my bills will be paid some day

I'm away, I'm away in a foreign land

Goodbye champagne and the caviar set

I wanna slum and drink all of the rum I can get

I'm away, I'm away in a foreign land

Here I am, here I am, here I am in a foreign land

But I'm all out of my jack

And I can't go back

I'm away, far away

Far away in a foreign land

La la la la la la

La la la la la la
