The Guild League – Jet-set... Go! lyrics

Disembark, leaving behind what you think you know
Bring home times that leave a mark, jet-set... go!

Tacked up in a hilltop olive crop
flat black on a sunset backdrop
Follow El Toro south from here
as the bus charges on into Andalucia

Stone fence on a Yorkshire cliff top
Trees tense against a gale that’s non-stop
Whitby’s a wild walk away
Hold my hand, stand looking at Robin Hood’s bay

From Green Park take the blue tube out to Heathrow
Watch your wings flash in the dark, jet-set... go!

Phi Mai to Nong Kai is a long long way
Took a train and tuk-tuk to my birthday
On the banks of the mighty Mekong with beers
getting older is the least of my fears

Lounging outside the ‘Fun City’ motel
Sun high over a neon-lit chapel
It’s all so unlikely, I grin like a fool
at the pink stucco walls and the bright blue pool

Disembark leaving behind what you think you know
Bring home times that leave a mark, jet-set... go!

At the end of a long day we fell back in love in a Haight district hotel
A question as big as the trees upstate
and an answer that opened our own golden gate

In the dark across continents my dreams know how to find out where you are
Jet-set
