Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song No One Wants To Stay , by - Paul Heaton. Song from the album Wisdom, Laughter And Lines, in the genre ПопNo One Wants To Stay |
| Our family tale, like vapour trail |
| Disappeared from sky |
| And sure enough, it tailed right off |
| The same as you and I |
| That jet will lift you into air |
| And wave goodbye to Earth |
| Just like our dreams and other schemes |
| And anything of worth |
| Marco Polo sailed East |
| De Gama sailed West |
| Many sailed with fingers crossed |
| And hoped for very best |
| Now the roar of jumbo jet |
| Fills every given day |
| 'Cause everybody wants to leave |
| And no one wants to stay |
| Cast your eyes into the skies |
| Watch those planes depart |
| Load your envy into hold |
| Along with heavy heart |
| Those brothers Wright chose wing and flight |
| And headed into cloud |
| And that’s what we will always do |
| Whenever we’re allowed |
| Look your family in the eye, boy |
| And offer them the fare |
| None of them would rather be |
| Sat here instead of sitting there |
| You wouldn’t see their arses |
| For the speed they left your side |
| When airport lounge was born, boy |
| This family died |
| Flying off into the sun |
| That runway feels so good |
| Following a wing and prayer |
| Ambition only could |
| A family tale’s a ship that sails |
| By sea, or air or land |
| And only makes its way back home |
| In paddleboat, by hand |
| Look your family in the eye, boy |
| And offer them the fare… |
