Music Theory
I don't speak the language here
I can't read nor write
Still love the tongue, the sounds it makes
Articulating, consonating, the whole shebang
Rummaging through the grammar
Get my big toe in
I love the dialects of this great continent
But with the people here I can't communicate
Wise up
Assimilate
Wise up
And harmonate
I remained an expat here for nearly fourteen years
Now I sing the song the indigenous sing
Desecrating, masacrating their holy lingo
Bull in a china shop
Chopping it up
I felt at home in this noisy neighbourhood
But with the people here I just can't relate
Move out
The time is right
Move on
Start your own tribe
It's back to signing and big old dictionairs
There's no asylum for a tourist here
Cop out
And dissipate
Cop out
Evaporate
I can't read nor write
Still love the tongue, the sounds it makes
Articulating, consonating, the whole shebang
Rummaging through the grammar
Get my big toe in
I love the dialects of this great continent
But with the people here I can't communicate
Wise up
Assimilate
Wise up
And harmonate
I remained an expat here for nearly fourteen years
Now I sing the song the indigenous sing
Desecrating, masacrating their holy lingo
Bull in a china shop
Chopping it up
I felt at home in this noisy neighbourhood
But with the people here I just can't relate
Move out
The time is right
Move on
Start your own tribe
It's back to signing and big old dictionairs
There's no asylum for a tourist here
Cop out
And dissipate
Cop out
Evaporate
