Rockwell - Foreign Country
FOREIGN COUNTRY
Norman Dozier, Rockwell, Curtis Anthony Nolen
Out of the mist, we fall into the new world
The flight attendant take my hand
Can't speak my language, but I get her message
Glad I'm in this strange new land
I take my luggage to the customs man, who
Looks at me with suspicious eyes
I wish he'd hurry, I've got two weeks left, I
Feel like I'm running out of time
Chorus
Please do behave in a foreign country
Détente could depend on you
Don't be afraid to enjoy yourself
You must be accustomed to the new atmosphere
This currency is not kind I'm used to
No Lincolns, Jeffersons, or Grants
No culture club or atom ants
And yet I must be on my best behavior
And not offend the heads of state
Could learn the language and the local customs
By then it just may be too late
Chorus
Please do behave in a foreign country
'Cause détente could depend on you
Don't be afraid to enjoy yourself
You must be accustomed to the new atmosphere here
Vamp
Please behave yourself
In a foreign country
Please enjoy yourself, détente could depend on you
