The Republic of Kinney - Paul Seeba

The Republic of Kinney Lyrics

"The Republic of Kinney" by Paul Seeba. The Republic of Kinney (2016)
Still trying to get skinny, better move to Papua New Guinea
Got no roads down there, you gotta walk everywhere
And if you’re long in your years, better move to Algiers
But stay out of the sun, if you wanna stay looking young
So you’re feeling kind of cool, you better move yourself to Peru
They got the Noni Juice, flowing out of trees down there
You wanna steal my lovin' heart, you ain’t got to look that hard
It’s right around the bend, take a left up here
Chorus
You want to be my little light, you want to be my overnight
Right here, right now The Republic of Kinney (repeat)
We don’t need no passports, they ain’t go no airport
They’ve got no armed guards, we gotta sneak around

They ain’t got no kings or queens, no dirty politician schemes
It’s right around the bend, take a left up here.
Chorus
You want to be my little light, you want to be my overnight
Right here, right now The Republic of Kinney (repeat)
Still trying to get skinny, better move to Papua New Guinea
[Liner note: Kinney is a little village in North America that tried to secede from the US in 1977. They weren't successful]
