Lyrics

Ooh-laa-ooh, sa-lacka, ooh-la, ooh-la, ooh-ooh
Ooh-laa-ooh, sha-lacka, ooh-la, ooh-la, ooh-ooh

I set up camp in the center of town
Ready for freedom when it all comes down
Snapping my fingers, walking around
I'm the dusty jewel in the thrown-out crown
Got a bus pass to make my way
From hideout to hideout in the heat of the day
I got a talisman tote with the whole array
And when you catch my coattails I'll be miles away

Restless year
It was another restless year
It was a restless year
For a while, we had no fear

Yeah, bloody nose in the all night diner
Rolling with Rose and Miss Mariel Steiner
You can't pin her down, you can't define her
Dostoevsky, dime store copy

Ooh-laa-ooh, sha-lacka, ooh-la, ooh-la, ooh
Ooh-laa-ooh, sha-lacka, ooh-la, ooh-la, ooh

Making the rounds in my five dollar dress
I can't go home, though I'm not homeless
I'm just another savage in the wilderness
And if you can't calm down, you can listen to this

(Death) Is my former employer
(Death) Is my own Tom Sawyer
(Death) Waits for me to destroy her
I never wanna die and I never grow older, yeah

Ooh-ahh-ooh, sha-lacka, ooh-la, ooh-la, ooh-ooh
Ooh-laa-ooh, sha-lacka, ooh-la, ooh-la, ooh-ooh

Restless year
It was another restless year
It was a restless year
Don't tell me anything I don't want to hear
