Comfort Zone

Comfort Zone

Don't get me wrong, I've had my share of 'otherwise,'
waving palm trees, coral sand and exotic skies,
stuck in a witch doctor's hut in central Africa,
itching in a souk with a well endowed Fatima.

I saw the signpost to Chittagong and Katmandu,
no radar there as all the planes were in a queue,
I couldn't drink any water in southern Thailand,
they searched me for drugs before I got to sand.

Bali Hi I love you, till a bomb got me hopping,
you just wouldn't get that sort of thing in Wopping,
Mugabe accused all us British of beinng rather gay,
although half of them were paedos in Zimbabwe.

Don't dare tell me that we all go thro' these things,
when I reach heaven, I won't go far with my wings.
