A chance to leave America
A chance to get away from her
If only for a year, there's time
To take my life and realign
A chance to leave my place of birth
A chance to be a man of worth
A nobody in some new place
To ride away on waves of phase
So let's go, let's go far away from here
Let's go, let's go far away from here
Let's go, let's go far away from here
Let's go, let's go
A chance to leave the mortgages
The layoffs for new languages
And get lost in the streets and squares
We're holding hands and no one cares
This country that has hated us
For reasons so innocuous
I won't support the war on me
I have to take this chance to leave
So let's go, let's go far away from here
Let's go, let's go far away from here
Let's go, let's go far away from here
Let's go, let's go
