Simon Michalek - Promised Land Lyrics

Baby wants to see the world
But baby has been tied to his bed
Baby is curious monkey
Baby was told he could be anything
You can choose just about any highway
Know that all are running roadworks
The uncle singing "I did it my way"
Sends you to choose your corridor

Where is my promised land
Asking strangers, who really should have known
Where is my promised land
Asking strangers, who really should have known
Why the wave avoids a home

The world's your oyster and it's in your hands
It is all entirely up to you
Oh, the catch was you need a key
That currently lies in the deep deep blue

Where is my promised land
Asking strangers, who really should have known
Where is my promised land
Asking strangers, who really should have known
Why the wave avoids a home

Tell me sir why must it be this bittersweet philosophy
Cooking water, dinner done
I'm staring at the setting sun
In hopes todays last rays might heal
What experts clearly failed to see.
Crimson red and if it bled
At least it wouldn't be just in the head

Where is my promised land
Asking strangers, who really should have known
Where is my promised land
Asking strangers, who really should have known
Why the wave avoids a home

You can choose just about any highway
(Tell me sir why must it be this bittersweet philosophy)
Know that all are running roadworks
(Cooking water, dinner done, I'm staring at the setting sun)
The uncle singing "I did it my way"
(In hopes todays last rays might heal, what experts clearly failed to see)
Is a liar, cheat, it's time to move
(Crimson red and if it bled, at least it wouldn't be just in the head)
