I went to the radio interview, but I ended up alone at the microphone
I went to the radio interview, but I ended up alone at the microphone
Now I'm living out here on the beach
But those seagulls are still out of rach
I went to the radio interview, but I ended up alone at the microphone
Get outta town, I think I'll get outta town
Get outta town, I think I'll get outta town
I head for the stick [mumble mumble mumble]
I follow a road I don't know where it goes
Get outta town, I think I'll get outta town
Cos the world is turning, I hope it don't turn away

Get out of town, think I'll get out of town,
Get out of town, think I'll get out of town.
