Ivory Coast

At night I sit and watch the world go by

I'm never never gonna try for the world

Like a rolling stone, always alone

With the father and the ghost

And the ivory on the Ivory Coast

Mama says

"Sometimes everyone hurts

Some beasts eat their shirts

When they're hungry!"

The future looks bleak

The future looks bright

Colour of a star, in the shape of a kite

Will I have to say goodbye to all this dirt, all this snow?

Yes, I think so...

Mama said

"No no no no no."

Like a rolling stone, always alone

In any kind of weather

Good things come to those who wait forever

Good things come to those who wait forever

Good things come to those who wait forever
