al duvall - welfare island lyrics
Loading...
manhattan’s made me madder than a hatter
the clang and clatter’s caused my mind to shatter
but i’ve heard about a paradise where everything is free
where i can chase my dreams and they won’t be chasing me
i’ll sail away to live on welfare island
‘neath palms held out for alms ‘neath the asylum
our ship will skip the ripples like a ferry
to rest across the eastern estuary
the natives will insist i stay a while and
i’ll emulate napoleon’s exile and
in my little granite shack i’ll smile and
i’ll never bid farewell to welfare island
where maidens in their uniforms beguile and
where time is only arrows on a dial and
i’m free from all the cares upon the dry land
i’ll never bid farewell to welfare island
