Redgum - I've Been To Bali Too lyrics

rate me

Qantas flight 20, Denpasar, meals and accom', rent-a-car

I've been to Bali, I've been to Bali too

Took a two week course at a suntan clinic

So lying round legian and I wouldn't look anaemic

And you can't impress me, 'cause I've been to Bali too

Got a ride out to Kuta in the back of a truck

Cost me twenty dollars and it wasn't worth a buck

Hustled to a losman down Poppies Lane

By a Javanese guy in a tropical rainstorm

Lock up your daughters, I've been to Bali too

Life is tragic hanging out at Kuta

If you haven't got a car, a bike or a scooter

Show me the bike shop, I've been to Bali too

Got myself a Honda, had to get away

No brakes, bald tyres, five thousand rupes a day

I've been to Bali too.

Well I don't ride a bike much home in Australia

As a motorcycle hero guess I'm a failure

Bemos to the left, trucks to the right

The Honda was a wreck but I was alright

Hello mecurochrome, I've been to Bali too

Wired home for money, short of cash

A dose of Bali belly and a tropical rash

Daddy came through - American Express

Bali t-shirts, magic mushrooms, Redgum bootlegs

I've been to Bali too

Took my bag and mozzie coils to Peliatan

It's there were my Bali trip really began

Been there, done that, I've been to Bali too

Tourists from Holland, Britain and France

Late night puppet shows, leg on dance

Want to see my slides, I've been to Bali too

Well I wandered off to Ubud, just a little up the track

One week there didn't want to come back

Listening to Gamelon playing guitar

Janteris, tacos, Hotel Monara, two month visa

I've been to Bali too.
