Ben Folds - Adelaide

Adelaide
Ben Folds

Adelaide
Far from the United States
On a plane
Dropping in from outer space
Now I see the bogans
Of LA
At the motor race
Takes a day
Here you know the world could turn
Or crash and burn
And you would never know it

Going where the air is clear
Charlie L. Smith's forty
Someone spiked my rice
There's better beer in Adelaide
The rest, history
Now I am a fixture down

Watching as the locals pass
Rundle Mall
Silver balls
They're pointed down
I can see their eyes around
They scan the spanning sidewalks
Fuss or worry
Learning that there is no hurry
Adelaide

In Adelaide
It's raining
A face is waiting in a window
A voice says
Because I want to
Why Adelaide
You could live anywhere and I say
Because I want to
I really really want to

And you know the earth could turn
Or crash and burn
And you would never know it
Really got to make it to the finish line
Pack the bags
Get the record done on time
And you can kiss my ass goodbye
And catch a flight
On Adelaide
Adelaide
