The Stevedores - Tourist Songtexte

One, two, three….One two, three….
Please allow me
to introduce myself
My name is Spencer
but you can call me
what you wanna.

I live in a house
on a street in a town
with some people I know
and a bunny
named Rowboat

I got a shirt and some pants
and some shoes and a hat
and a mouth and a nose
cuz I'm cool like that

Now I guess you know
all there is to know about me…..

I'm new in this town
would ya' show me around?
I'm trying to find a place
where the good times get wasted

cuz I'm facing a boredom
that borders on horrible

Can we order some alcohol please?

Every now and then
I take a look around myself and think
God, I'm such a tourist

Other times
I take a look around myself
(at times like right now)
and I have to feel lucky
for the kindness of strangers
like you

I only bring it up because
you look like you might
wanna hand someone somethin'

I only brought it up
because you look like you might
wanna hand somebody somethin'

and it shouldn't be me

Please, allow me
to buy you another one.
A Long Island Ice Tea
for the pretty lady
a whiskey and water for me

I'm not very good at
playin' the piano
But nobody's here
and they've got a piano

And I'll play a song for you..

I got
one about a lonely guy
and one that's just a lullaby
But all my songs are all about
how much I hated
the women that I dated

before I came to this place

I'm new in this town
would ya' show me around?
I'm tryin' to find a place
where the good times get wasted

cuz I'm faced with a boredom
that borders on horrible

Can we order some alcohol please?

Every now and then
I take a look around myself and think
God, I'm such a tourist.

Other times I take a look around myself
and have to feel lucky
for the things I've been handed
cuz there've been a lot..
A lot of things I've been handed
I've dropped
a lot of the things

I only bring it up because
you look like you might wanna
hand somebody somethin'

I only bring it up because
you look like you might wanna
hand somebody somethin'

and it shouldn't be me……
