The rain came down made everything grey
It makes you wish we could all fly away, to an island
Where the sun shines bright
Music, dancing and laughter all night
No gangsters, no murders, no quick tempered gangs
Just sun and the sea and long golden sands
I'm only asking to be safe and sound
Fed up of my life just going round
And round and round and round
Don't listen to fools and what they have to say
You'll get what you're after one of these days
Until then hold the ropes tight
Before your dream comes into sight
Like an ocean wave it comes and it goes
And where it'll take us nobody knows, maybe an island
I once caught crabs from a girl in Perth
She'd been around the block but was salt of the earth
I'm only asking to be safe and sound
Fed up of my life just going round
And round and round and round
I'm only asking to be safe and sound
Fed up of my life just going round
And round and round and round
But this a dream that'll never come true
Cos I'm stuck here and so are you
I'm only asking to be safe and sound
Fed up of my life just going round
And round and round and round
