M.I.A. Lyrics


This Way To The Egress M.I.A.

Let's take a trip around the world

Let's take a trip around the world
See what you can see
Don't talk too much, I wonder where you are
Let's all laugh at the sea
Such a salty means
The sand, it crunches underneath our feet

I can't believe it's you
Follow us around
Hoping for the scraps just like a dog
M.I.A is a good dog
Just like a little flea
Hopping all around and ‘round my feet!

Pretending that we see
The urchins in the street
They're bleeding as they toss us to our knees
I can't believe it's me
I used to be right next to them
And now it's likе I never knew thеir names

Pretending that we see
The urchins in the street
They're bleeding as they toss us to our knees
Let's take a trip into this bar
Find what you can find
These oceans are the blind leading the blind
Feature is the break
Broken down our feet
And we are marching right into the sea!

I can't believe it's me
Follow you around
Hoping for your scraps just like a dog
You are not a good dog
Just like a tiny tick
Falling up and down and down this trick

Pretending that we see
The urchins in the street
They're bleeding as they toss us to our knees
I can't believe it's me
I used to be right next to them
And now it's like I never knew their names

Pretending that we see
The urchins in the street
They're bleeding as they toss us to our knees!

You are so overzealous
Pick up your sticks and tell us
What verse you want to hear
As you pass by
Crescendo is a bit too loud now
Toss of the coin, turn your hats ‘round
Fall into your pockets, dear, and come along

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da!

There's a town way down that I want to see
Caring not the path down into the street
There's a man selling wares from his suitcase, yes!
Hold it up to the light and I'm screaming now
You can laugh, you can tease, but we're going west
To our neighbour's yard inside Clarence
To the city or the next bazaar
It's a wonder that we are alive at all

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da!

Pretending that we see
The urchins in the street
They're bleeding as they toss us to our knees
I can't believe it's me
I used to be right next to them
And now it's like I never knew their names

Pretending that we see
The urchins in the street
They're bleeding as they toss us to our knees
I can't believe it's me
I used to be right next to them
And now it's like I never knew their names
