Quick Escape
Reconnaissance on the corner
In the old world not so far
First we took an airplane
Then a boat to Zanzibar
Queen cranking on the blaster
Mercury did rise
Came along where we all belonged
You were yours, and I was mine
(Yeah, yeah)
Had to quick escape
Had to quick escape
Had to quick escape
Had
Crossed the border to Morocco
Kashmir to Marrakesh
The lengths we had to go to then
To find a place Trump hadn't fucked up yet
Living life on the back porch
Lifting rocks to make a wage
Every sunset paid attention to
Not a starry night went to waste
Had to quick escape
Had to quick escape
Had to quick escape
And here we are, the red planet
Craters cross the skyline
A sleep sack in a bivouac
And a Kerouac sense of time
Oh, and we think about the old days
Of green grass, sky and red wine
Should've known its so fragile
Avoided this one-way flight
Had to quick escape
Had to quick escape
Had to quick escape
Had
