Adelaide lyrics

Artist  : Ben Folds 
Song : Adelaide



 Send "Adelaide" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Adelaide 

On a plane 

Far from the united states 

Of LA 

Dropping in from outer space 

Takes a day 

Now I see the Bogans 

At the motor race 

Here you know the world could turn 

Or crash and burn 

And you would never know it 

Going where the air is clear 

There’s better beer in Adelaide 



Charlie L. Smith's forty 

Someone spiked my rice 

The rest, history 

Now I am a fixture down 



Rundle Mall 

Watching as the locals pass 

Silver balls 

I can see their eyes around 

They’re pointed down 

They scan the spanning sidewalks 

Learning that there is no hurry 

Fuss or worry 

Adelaide 



Ah ah ah ah 

Ah ah ah ah 



Ah ah ah ah 

Ah ah ah ah 



It’s raining 

In Adelaide 

A face is waiting in a window 

A voice says 

Why Adelaide 

You could live anywhere and I say 

Because I want to 

Because I want to 

I really really want to 



And you know the earth could turn 

Or crash and burn 

And you would never know it 

Really got to make it to the finish line 

Get the record done on time 

Pack the bags 

And catch a flight 

And you can kiss my ass goodbye 

On Adelaide 

Adelaide 

Adelaide 

Adelaide
