Wake up get ready
Wake up get ready
What a wonderful trip's ahead
Well wake up, get ready
Wake up, get ready
Such a wonderful trip's ahead

We get dressed as ghosts

With sheets taken from the bed
Inside our socks we hide travelers' checks
We are tourists of the dead

So let's pack up

Let's go

So let's pack up

Let's go

Let's pack up

Let's go

Let's go

There was this tortoise
It's shell was covered with jewels
And had been since time began

It knew the world through
All its histories
And the universe and it's mysteries
One day it came across a man

The two were talking

The tortoise offered to tell him
About the future and how the universe ran

Oh, the man killed the tortoise
Took his shell
And with a song on his
Lips walked off again

So let's walk off

Let's go

So let's walk off

Let's go

Let's walk off

Let's go

So let's walk off

Let's go

Pack a lunch wander 'round
Toss the map on the ground
It isn't accurate anyways

We've been getting away
We've been getting away
We are strangers to ourselves

We sneak out

Drip by drip
Through paper cuts on our hands
Day after day

Nothing's quite the same
We are tourists in our own heads
So let's walk on

Let's go

Let's walk on

Let's go

Let's walk on
I think I feel ready to go
Let's go

Let's walk on

Let's go

I think I feel ready to go
I think I feel ready to go
I think I feel ready to go

I think I feel ready to go
I think I feel ready to go
I think I feel ready to go
