Lyrics
WANDERLUST by Alan Fennah
Verse1.
Famine, Hunger, Cruelty, Obsession
Despair, Inhumanity, burn and bust
Poverty and plunder, pure insanity
Robbery and violence, Wanderlust
Link
I wish that I could take a trip
On a rocket to the stars
Maybe I’d find a better world
Than this one we call ours
Verse2.
Hostile rampage, Racial inequality
Brazen vengeance, Lost and crushed
Self-Idolatry, Child starvation
Profanity, Obscenity, Wanderlust
Link2
In my dreams I take the trip
On a rocket to the stars
Hoping to find a better world
Than this one we call ours
Chorus
I found everything that I’ve been longing for
A world as one
But my dream fades in a wisp of smoke
So my wanderlust goes on
INSTRUMENTAL SOLO
Verse3
Flagrant arrogance, Vanity of Presidents,
Social distance, Dust to dust
Walls and barriers, Viral carriers
Isolation, Wanderlust
Link2
In my dreams I take the trip
On a rocket to the stars
And then I find a better world
Than this one we call ours
Chorus
And when I returned the years had passed me by
Our world was one
With selflessness and harmony
But hatred, there was none
For a solitary moment…
My wanderlust had gone
