Looking For A Place To Happen |
| I’ve got a job, I explore |
| I follow every little whiff |
| And I want my life to smell like this |
| To find a place, an ancient race |
| The kind you’d like to gamble with |
| Where they’d stamp on burning bags of shit |
| Looking for a place to happen |
| Making stops along the way, hey |
| Wayward ho, away we go |
| It’s a shame to leave this masterpiece |
| With its gallery gods and its garbage bag trees |
| So I’ll paint a scene from memory |
| So I’d know who murdered me |
| It’s a vain pursuit but it helps me to sleep |
| Looking for a place to happen |
| Making stops along the way, hey |
| Looking for a place to happen |
| Making stops along the way, hey |
| Looking for a place to happen |
| Making stops along the way, hey |
| Jacques Cartier, right this way |
| I’ll put your coat up on the bed |
| Hey, man, you’ve got the real bum’s eye for clothes |
| And come on in, sit right down |
| No, you’re not the first to show |
| We’ve all been here since, God, who knows? |
| Looking for a place to happen |
| Making stops along the way, hey |
| Looking for a place to happen |
| Making stops along the way, hey |
| Jacques Cartier, right this way |
| I’ll put your coat up on the bed |
| You’ve got the real bum’s eye for clothes |
| And come on in, sit right down |
| We’ve all been here since, God, who knows? |
