Gogol Bordello - Wonderlust King

Back in the day yo as we learned A man was not considered to be Considered to be fully grown Has he not gona beyond the hills Has he not crossed the 7 seas Yeah, 7 seas at least! Now all them jokers kept around Just like the scarecrows in hometown Yeah, scarecrows in hometown From screen to screen they’re travelin’ But I’m a wonderlust king I stay on the run Let me out Let me be gone In the world’s beat up road sign I saw new history of time... New history of time!!! Through Siberian woods Breaking up their neck Chinese moving in building discoteques Homemade sex toys and whatnot Yeah, and why not? Well at least it’s something different From what they got in every other airport Ja ne evrei, no koje-chto pohozge sovrat ne dast ni Yura ni Seryozga! Simple because I’m not a total gadjo Da ja shut, ja tziratch, nu tak stozge? I traveled the world Looking for understanding Of the times that we live in Hunting and gathering first hand information Challenging definitions of sin I traveled the world Looking for lovers Of the ultimate beauty But never settled in I’m Wonderlust King! And presidents And billionaires And generals They’ll never know What I have owned! What I have owned... I’m a wonderlust king!
