I'm goin' to Polynesia
To see a pretty geisha
Who knows just how to place ya
Such an easy rider
Then it's back to California
Don't say I never warned ya
My traveling companion left me after Ireland
You must think I'm talking way too loud
I'm only tired of you guessing why I'm proud
There's only one way to go
Down
I've been trying to defeat ya, but Death it's good to meet ya
Been hiding under bleachers
Where the dirt tastes like it should
Now do your woods boast 100 acres?
Host honey belly-achers?
Painting trees won't help relive an empty childhood
One last time to Carolina
The grass is always finer
Sure hope that I don't find her with a suitcase in her hand
(Sure enough I found her)
But you'll need water for to wake her
I already tried to shake her
The painted trees had thanked her like a sacrificial lamb
If she's gone to meet her maker put a suitcase in her hand
