I'm going walkabout It's time to get away to the outback. I've been here for years. It feels like I'm seeping into the seams of the stitching of yesterday's dreams And I've got to go.
No one will notice,no one will know If I don't turn up for the show they'll just think that I passed. My turn has come to get on the road and to run as fast as I can. You can't catch this man he's to quick. Tied to the past though I maybe I am no baby when it comes to a race I set the pace And I'm off.
Walkabout Talk about a jape This jackanapes is making his track And he ain't looking back. I am gone as soon as the sun makes a face In the morning this place will be history. That's me. Gone in a flash. Now I must dash off and pack my walkabout sack With a brolly and boots,two suits and a pair of old jeans. That seems about right. This time tomorrow night I'll be far away.
