This Island

I met the King of England once

But the guys at the deli back home

They don't believe me

(Believe)

I ride my bike all around

Round my hometown

Where nobody knows me

(Knows me)

And they say that, "The problem is mine and I should take"

Take a more positive line on the situation

When solutions are staring me right in the face

Yet we've run out of time

But if I do what you'd say everything would be fine

Well no thanks, I'd rather sit here and die on this island

Cash it in and stick to the end

No thanks, I'd rather sit here and die on this island

Can't you see that I need this to end

I had a dream about a song

It was so strong

It made all the right's wrong

(Right, wrong)

But when I went to write it all down

Capture the sound

You won't believe what I found

(I found)

Yeah, it turn out bad, mad and sad when I played it

It sounded like, more like a fad that had lasted

A little too long that it had and I realized

This was as good as it got

There's no snowmen in hell 'cos it's too fuckin' hot

So no thanks, I'd rather sit here and die on this island

Cash it in and stick to the end

No thanks, I'd rather sit here and die on this island

Can't you see that I need this to end?

Yeah, I thought that I knew, who I was, what I know?

Nothing, or all the above did I mention

Those hip new ideas that I got from you last week

They sucked all the life out of life in a heartbeat

And ripped mine right out of my chest [Incomprehensible] right through

But you already knew that was true

Since you tried it the first time in 1989

When you were the one in my shoes

And some asshole like you told you what you should do

When you do what you do

And you had to do it how he wanted you to?

Have you learned how to live with regret?

Yeah, I can't get these things in my head

'Cos if I turned out like you I would wish I was dead

No thanks, I'd rather sit here and die on this island

No thanks, I'd rather sit here and die on this island

No thanks, I'd rather sit here and die on this island

No thanks, I'd rather sit here and die on this island

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
