I heard the views were pretty good from outer space
But now I'm here and not so sure I wanna stay
I was brought up to think we're all a little strange
I find trouble climbing all the stares I get these days
I've just been running in place
I need a change of pace
Maybe an island getaway
Is all I need so I don't have to see your face
I searched around and found a pod for my escape
I turned the key then flew across the Milky Way
I've been caught up in tangles of your DNA
My double vision's pushing twice the friends away
I've just been running in place
I need a change of pace
Maybe an island getaway
Is all I need so I can get out of this race
I'm on an island, flamingoes dying all around
They're only trying, to find some quiet where they won't be found
So it's a lie then, to think there's solace in the tropics, oh
So who am I then? 'Cause I've been living on a UFO
I've just been running in place
I need a change of pace
Maybe an island getaway
Is all I'll need but I'll probably see your face in the waves
Your face in the waves
