Lyrics
I'VE BEEN RUNNIN OUT OF STEAM
CALL ME MISS ALL WORK AND NO PLAY
YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHERE I'VE BEEN
UP AND DOWN AROUND THE WORLD TODAY
GOTTA FIND ME SOME SALVATION
SOMETHING TO GIVE ME PEACE OF MIND
REMOVE THE VEIL OF MY FRUSTRATION
AND LEAVE MY WORRIES FAR BEHIND
GONNA GET MYSELF A PIECE OF EARTH
PUT A COZY BLANKET, LAY ME DOWN
SO GIVE ME A WIDE BERTH
COS I DON'T WANT YOU HANGING AROUND
WHILE I TAKE A BIG SWIM IN LAKE ME
TAKE A BIG SWIM IN LAKE ME
WITH JUST MYSELF AND I AND ME
TAKE A BIG SWIM IN LAKE ME
I NEED SOME FUEL IN THIS HERE TANK
THE METER TELLS ME I'M ON EMPTY
I'M IN THE RED NOW AT MY BANK YOU SEE
BEEN NO DEPOSITS IN THERE LATELY
NEED SOME REST AND RELAXATION
AND A LONG LOOK INSIDE
DON'T WANT NO TROUBLE OR DISTRACTION
FIND A PLACE WHERE I CAN HIDE
GONNA GET MYSELF A PIECE OF GREEN
PUT A COZY BLANKET, LAY ME DOWN
A PATCH OF PARADISE THAT'S SO SERENE
SOMEWHERE THAT I CAN'T BE FOUND
TAKE A BIG SWIM IN LAKE ME
TAKE A BIG SWIM IN LAKE ME
WITH JUST MYSELF AND I AND ME
TAKE A BIG SWIM IN LAKE ME
GONNA GET MYSELF A PIECE OF EARTH
PUT A COZY BLANKET, LAY ME DOWN
SO GIVE ME A WIDE WIDE BERTH
COS I DON'T WANT YOU HANGING AROUND
WHILE I
BREAK
TAKE A BIG SWIM IN LAKE ME
TAKE A BIG SWIM IN LAKE ME
WITH JUST MYSELF AND I AND ME
TAKE A BIG SWIM IN LAKE ME
