Girl Nation (Maxisingle)

I had a ticket to fly so I boarded a plane
When a combat dressed stewardesse shouted my name
I'm wanted alive yeah! I'm in for a trial
It's minimum mercy coz they found my file
Hijacked, kidnapped, trailed and trapped
They fly me in I'm gonna pay for all of my sins - now it begins
Yeah! I've a found place where girls eat men
Now I'm back in girl nation again
Girl nation Female civilization
Girl nation Female civilization

It's a female tale it's hard to use words
But I'm landed and stranded among oysters & birds
Bad bush & dangerous curves bad boys get what they deserves
Wild sisters dancing all night Round that totem
With a knife to my throat Round that totem
Yeah! They're chanting the oath
Singing 'bout mama all through the night round that totem of the red light
In girl nation Female civilization
Girl nation Female civilization
In girl nation by interstellar navigation
And sweet female persuasion
Globetrotting to ladyland Back where time began

One wild second then I was down
One full circle they stood all around
Counting my bones waiting to be dead
When a soft loving hand lifted my head
Tender lips kissing my chin, whispering:
- Honey, where have you been?
In girl nation Totem of the red light
Female civilization
In girl nation Totem of the red light
It's a female civilization Girl nation
Totem of the red light
By interstellar navigation & sweet female persuasion
Globetrotting through ladyland - back where time began
In girl nation ...

From the steamin Mekong delta
To the shores of Tonkin bay
Bombs of yellied gasoline
Is making night as bright as day
And the mogul's hard tank masters
Adore their new grenades
And the D.A.D. find their 9" shells
Are great for border raids

Yeah! I'm superfurious
I've done it again
I reach 50 when I count to 10
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left
For the pilgrims
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left
For the pilgrims

And you can shake your fist at the T.V. set
And you can slam your hand in the table
And you can cry and curse
Through tightlocked teeth
Just as hard as you are able
But you can't run away from trouble
'Coz there ain't no place that far
No fuel left for the pilgrims
Yeah! That's just the way we are

'Coz I'm superfurious I've done it again
I reach 50 when I count to 10
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left for the pilgrims
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left for the pilgrims

This is tower again, do you read me? You can get the girls & the
videomachine but the fuel you asked for... You cannot have!

What?! Blow me to heaven!!
Jihad I'm getting so mad I'm getting so mad
..Who's mad I'm mad, so mad
Jihad I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left for the pilgrims.
Etc.

Say if you see a vicious lightning on the nighttime sky
There's no use checkin' the starmap or aski daddy why
And if you get me on the wire I'll give you this reply:
See I'm comin' higher'n'higher over chimneypot'n'spire
ZCMI Yeah! I'm that high flyin' guy
ZCMI And when the moon sails by
ZCMI I smile and wave goodbye
ZCMI

Beyond the end of space to the future and back
In search of solid ground to plant our flag
Yeah! We planned to build a base but the sky was too black
See I'm comin' higher'n'higher over chimneypot'n'spire
ZCMI Yeah! I'm that high flyin' guy
ZCMI And when the moon sails by
ZCMI I smile and wave goodbye
ZCMI
ZCMI Surrender or die!
ZCMI I'm that high flyin' guy
ZCMI Yeah! I smile and wave goodbye...
ZCMI When the moon sails by....
Yeah! I'm the ZCMI
