lyrics

Chapter 5: Breakfast

You've travelled the world and the eastern seas,
You've travelled the world.
You're made of the great human melodies
From all over the world.

And you'd think it's a matter of deepest sympathy
To be out in the world,
But then you run, run,
From the great menagerie --
You haven't a word!

You've sailed in time to the harshest breeze,
All over the world.
You've never been graced with a luxury,
And never preferred.
But then you run, run,
From the great menagerie --
You haven't a word!

And you'd think it's a matter of deepest sympathy
To be out in the world,
But you're turning
Inward, baby, take your time --
You're out in the world!
