Rainbirds - With A Smile Lyrics
This is a tired old world I wantNews from elsewhereGood newsBad newsOn picture-postcardsThis is a blind spotThis is an empty lotI need a radioI need a hilltopI want my news from elsewhereIt is a mighty long way fromHere to elsewhereUphillDownhillWish I had aFourwheel-driveWish I was a contenderBut you are never standingBy the roadsideYou are never waving at meI would be rather happy hereIf I could tell you where I will bePassing byWith a smileT` is a funny idea that I shouldBe from somewhereIsn`t it obviousThat I have neverNever ever been thereI`m on the look-outI don`t belong hereIt would be wonderfullIf I was wrongI would be rather happy hereIf I could tell you where I will bePassing byWith a smile(spoken words:)In the wooden shed he found a piece of cardboard on which the previousOccupant had written: how can I please myself when I have no self toPlease? ³ sorry, young man³ -thought burroughs- i think you areKidding yourself. as long as you talk to yourself, you have a self. theSelf is a pimping, blackmailing chauffeur who gets you from here toThere on word lines.³I would be rather happy hereIf I could tell you where I will bePassing byWith a smileWith a smileYeah
