    Back in the day yo as we learned
    A man was not considered to be
    Considered to be
    (Considered to be fully grown!)
    Has he not gone 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 them travelin'

    [chorus]
    But I'm a wonderlust king
    I stay on the run (yeah, run)
    Let me out
    Let me be gone
    In the world's beat up road sign
    I saw new history of a time...
    New history of...
    Tadadada tadadada tadadada tadadadado! (x3)

    Tadadadado!
    Oi oi oi oi oi oi!

    Through Siberian woods
    Breaking up their neck
    Chinese moving in building discotheques
    Transiberian sex toys and whatnot
    (Yeah, why not?)
    Well at least it's something different
    From what they got in every other airport

    Ja ne evrei, no koje-chto pohozhe
    Sovrat' ne dast ni Yura ni Seryozha!
    Simply because I'm not a total gadjo
    Da ja shut, ja cirkach, nu tak chto-zhe?

    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

    [chorus]

    And presidents
    And billionaires
    And generals
    They'll never know
    What I have owned!
    What I have owned!

    I am a wonderlust king!
