In A Foreign Land - Kinks

It was a matter of fact that when I paid all my tax 
I held my world in the palm of my hand 
And all of my debts were causing me to defect 
To a land of bananas and sand 
So I ran, yes I ran, yes I ran to a foreign land 
Here I am, here I am 
Here I am in a foreign land 

I'm so glad we made it 
I thought we'd never land 
I grabbed all my cash 
And decided to dash far away 
Far away, far away to a foreign land 
Here I am, here I am, here I am in a foreign land 

Goodbye to all of the rich man's daughters 
Goodbye to my debts now I'm 'way cross the water 
Far away, far away in a foreign land 
Here I am, here I am here I am in a foreign land 

La la la la la la 
La la la la la la 

Please tell my mother and all my ex-lovers 
That I've finally made the grade 

Please tell my debtors and the money collectors 
That all of my bills will be paid some day 
I'm away, I'm away, far away in a foreign land 

Goodbye champagne and caviar set 
I want to slum and drink all the rum I can get 
I'm away, I'm away in a foreign land 
Here I am, here I am, here I am in a foreign land 
But I'm all out of my jack and I can't go back 
I'm away, far away, far away in a foreign land 

La la la la la la 
La la la la la la
