Mike Boyd - I Get Around lyrics
rate meI am Canadian, not an American
But I treat hip hop as part of my heritage
I went down South, yeah, I went to Texas
Electric chairs for anyone with a death wish
I been down under where they all say, “yay, mate”
I even seen a dingo eat a lady’s baby
Living this tall life will make you crazy
Got me drinking every night
Not thinking about the wife
Took a flight to the UK, I hated the food taste
I lost my appetite, they lost my suitcase
And I ain’t built the spring on another tuba toothpaste
I ain’t got pounds to burn but I could lose weight
I went to Europe on an eurotrip
If you thinking about going, I encourage it
‘Cause on March 30th I got my birthday wish
Up in Amsterdam smoking birthday gifts
I get around
I get around
‘Cause I get around
‘Cause I get around
Yeah, I been all around the world
But I still got a lot of place I gotta see
I wanna go to Spain, I wanna roam with the bulls
I wanna go to the Congo, go hunt for gold
Maybe go to the Arctic and swim with the penguins
Then ride on a double decker bus in England
Yes, I’m working and I ignore the promises
And I ain’t stopping till I see every continent
Yeah, I’m checking off my bucket list one trip at a time
Still gotta go to Africa and live with a tribe
I fantasize over the ways of the Samurai
Fly to Japan, get a sword, learn to handle mine
Take Kung Fu in China, learn to drop you
Eating my food with them little wood chopsticks
Then to Costa Rica, spend time in the Tropics
In the tropic forest fighting snakes that are toxic
Traveling the world, going town to town
Every other week I’m homeward bound ‘cause
I get around
I get around
‘Cause I get around
‘Cause I get around
‘Cause I get around
‘Cause I get around
