Borneo Lyrics by Firewater

The Golden Hour

2008

(Alem, Radyo 2000 dinliyor.)

Well I ain't gonna live in your world no more (Hey Borneo!)
Feelin' like a flunky for a two-bit whore (Here I come Borneo!)
You've got a monkey for a president (Hey Borneo!)
And a head all filled up with cement (Lookout Borneo!)

So I'm getting out of here
And I'm counting one! (two!) three! (four!)
I can't take a minute more!

I'm gonna swing like an ape from a banyan tree (Hey Borneo!)
I'm gonna live me a life of luxury (Here I come Borneo!)
I'll get drunk on toddy and I'll sleep all day (Hey Borneo)
Until your world is washed away (Lookout Borneo!)

So I'm getting out of here
I said, I'm counting four! (three!) two! (one!)
Set a course for the rising sun

So I'm getting out of here
Said I'm counting ten! (nine!) eight! (seven!)
This monkey's gonna go to heaven

Gonna set my sails for the virgin soil (Hey Borneo!)
You know I don't wanna die for the price of oil (Here I come Borneo!)
I wanna watch the sun set every night (Hey Borneo!)
Gonna fall asleep in the cool moonlight (Lookout Borneo!)

So I'm getting out of here
Yeah, I'm counting five! (six!) seven! (eight!)
See you at the pearly gates

Hey Borneo!
Here I come Borneo!
Hey Borneo!
Lookout Borneo!
Hey Borneo!
Here I come Borneo!
