Big World - Joe Jackson



Looking over hong kong harbour

Throw a shrimp in yellow wine

Eat it when it ceases moving

Just before is fine too

There's an ancient chinese saying

Always seems to slip my mind

Does it really die with honour

Does it really matter

It's a big world - so much to do



Sitting on a beach in bali

Tried to reach and grab a cloud

Looked so much like cotton candy

And i'm feeling god-like

Could it be just what i'm eating

Only mushrooms after all

And with juice of avocado

I should live forever



It's a big world - so much to see much



Sitting on the floor in kyoto

Marvel at the latest catch

Eat it as soon as you are able

Quick before they cook it

There's an eyeball staring at me

And i know i've met my match

Do i eat or am i eaten

It's a new adventure

It's a big world - so much to do

It's a big world - so much to see



From the leningradsky prospekt

On the road to mandalay

There's a new intoxication

Hits you just as you're leaving

Caf sur les champs-elyses

Baklava in istanbul

Smoke a pipe in casablanca

Question all you believe in

It's a big world - so much to do

It's a big world - so much to see

And plenty of room for me and you
