Chris De Burgh - Tourist Attraction lyrics

Down in the jungle, you can hear a rumble

Way up the Himalayas, in a Mexican bodega

Something is going on

People are coming, running round the world

There's no way to avoid them, they're everywhere

You can see them on the streets of London town

They've found a tourist attraction

It's a bobby on the beat

Yes, a tourist attraction,

They're all looking at his feet

And the blue rinse ladies

Shooting cameras from the hip

Doing Europe in two days

"We've had a wonderful trip!"

And he turns to the Palace

You can almost hear him say

"Your Majesty why don't you tell them,

Please go away!"

Tourist attraction, tourist attraction, tourist attraction

Caribbean island, cool drink in my hand

Nearest thing to Paradise, the native girls are very nice

Something is going wrong

People are coming, running down the beach

Cameras at the ready, get out of reach

Time to grab my things, I'm heading for the hills

They've found a tourist attraction

Yes, my little hideaway

It's a tourist attraction

It will never be the same

There's a big bus driver

Taking money on the side

"Everybody stick together

And please follow the guide"

And way over yonder

They hear somebody yell

"I came here for the peace and quiet

Y'all go to hell!"

Tourist attraction, tourist attraction

tourist attraction, tourist attraction
