Let’s go, you and I. And sweat beneath the African sky Watch the lions lazing And the wild dogs playing. We can sip Amarula And listen to the hyenas laugh and cry As the mythical sunset Silhouettes giraffes and Acacia trees.
Let’s go, you and I And walk the streets of old town Barcelona. Find old timey cafe and luxuriate In sangria and itty bitty tapas Stroll by Sagrada and gawp At Gaudi’s home. Maybe we’ll stop for some ice cream Maybe we’ll just go back to the hotel
Let’s go, you and I And swim the blue blue seas of the Bahamas Nervously Play with the nurse sharks Hoping they’re not the other sharks Take those long walks on those beaches That everyone likes. We’ll sit on Jankanoo and drink sky juice Until we can truly reach the heavens
Let’s go, you and I And ski the Slopes of the Swiss alps We can stop at small cabins and drink heartwarming schnapps Take trains that slink around mountains And sprint through white capped forests We can put snow down the backs Of each others jackets and Squeal in furious delight.
Let’s go, you and I. And squish our way through the streets of New York Relieved when we can pop into a shop To escape the crowds. Necks sore from looking up Small town people in the Big Apple City Central Park for pretzels and Snapple Times Square later, neon addiction sated. And a boat ride to see lady liberty
Let’s go, you and I And bare our feet in Balinese temples Speak to the monks in broken English And then retire to our curtained gazebo To indulge in the sins they can’t We’ll get massages and champagne Then ride our bikes along pothole Ridden dirt roads.
Let’s go, you and I And get Nuevo Chic in London’s west end We can catch a show in tux and evening gown Then head to the pub and catch a pint We can walk the trail, hunt Jack the Ripper And visit The Tower. Cross the Thames and maybe No definitely Another pint in some quaint little place.
Let’s go, you and I And lie in bed late on lazy Sunday mornings I’ll poach the eggs and make the hollandaise You can put some upbeat daytime jazz on Then we can go sit in the garden Under the oak tree and read Each other poetry Until it’s much much later ...
