I'll ride my bike 'til I reach the highlands Where no one will know my name Or I'll swim on my surfboard out into the ocean And sunbathe 'til I waste away I whisper to the campfire, "Oh campfire, please teach me How to turn such simple things into light and beauty" Well, Moses saw God in a burning bush, I'm praying, please Burn away my sins, hear my plight, and soothe my feet I walk to the river, see something in the stream Maybe it's a siren or a rainbow fish's sheen Or maybe it's Poseidon, won't this river reach the sea? But oh no, it's nothing, at least nothing I can see I'll ride my bike 'til I reach the highlands Where no one will know my name Or I'll swim on my surfboard out into the ocean And sunbathe 'til I waste away Oh, waste away Na Oida (Na Oida) Na Oida (Na Oida) Na Oida (Na Oida) Leiwand (Leiwand) Na Oida (Na Oida) Na Oida (Na Oida) Na Oida Leiwand (Na Oida Leiwand) They tried to promote me to full-time at the gay bar I told them I've got to finish my degree But I've just been drinking rum mixed with k cider Think I'll swap with rum mixed with lambrini I'll ride my bike 'til I reach the highlands Where no one will know my name Or I'll swim on my surfboard out into the ocean And sunbathe 'til I waste away I'll hitchhike real far, maybe get to Sri Lanka Or at least 'til my calloused thumb breaks Or I'll save all my money, fly out to Alaska Live in the woods the rest of my days And I'll waste away
