歌词
In a place like this
You've gotta read the weather
People stranger every year
In a place like this
You've gotta earn your feathers
And don't complain when winter's here
People 'round here so ferocious
Breeding with the crocodiles
Must be where they got those smiles
Even things with teeth like that get tame after a while
When the morning comes
You've gotta read your tea leaves
And feel the sea breeze on your cheeks
When the morning comes
You make entreaties
To deities you haven't seen for weeks
People 'round here so deceitful
Faces make to crack the glass
Anything to get out fast
Even those who carefully plan
get caught out by and by
When the evening comes
You count the insect clouds around your island home
When the evening comes
you count your true friends
lookin' out for number one
People 'round here so ferocious
Breeding with the crocodiles
Must be where they got those smiles
Even things with teeth like that get tame after a while
People 'round here so familiar
Faces made to cut the grass
Anything to get out fast
But even those who lose it all
get found out after a while
In a place like this
You've gotta read the weather
People stranger every year
