As I sit by the pool of my best friend's ho-------use
My mind will wander
What the hell am I-- still doing here? Yeah
When I could be yonder
Overseas in a reggae paradise, yeah
That would be nice
Under the shade of a swaying palm tree---
Just sounds so goddamn perfect to me
Just to escape, to elope or to break free, yeah
Somewhere far away, far from Canberra preferably
Going abroad, for a while
I'll miss the band and the girl I left behind, yeah
I hope that girl don't mind
Thought I was happy where I was
And I still am, don't ask me why, it's just because
Going abroad, for a while
Yeah, going abroad, for a little while
Coconuts and novelty cups with umbrellas on the tops
I like them lots
No need for worries, no need to shout
But I say what if the Hokey Pokey is what it's all about?
Have I been wasting my time, all of these years?
Wanting girls that I cannot get and, buying them beers
To no avail, I'll always fail
I say oh no, I need to get out of here
Going abroad for a while
