Public Image Ltd. – Seattle lyrics
Don't like the look of this old town
What goes up must come down
Character is lost and found
On unfamiliar playing ground

Get out of my world
(What in the world?)

Shoe-boxed around the rifle range
Have all your functions rearranged
Your mind and body, gagged and bound
On a new familiar playing ground

The ordinary will ignore
Whatever they cannot explain
As if nothing ever happened
And everything remained the same again

(What in the world?)
What in the world?
(What in the world?)

Get, get out of my world
(What in the world?)
Get out of my world
(What in the world?)

Get up, get up, get out, get out
Get out of my world
Get up, get up, get out, get out
Get out of my world

Get up, get up, get out, get out
Get out of my world
Get up, get up, get out, get out
Get out of my world

Get up, get up, get out, get out
Get out of my world
Get up, get up, get out, get out
Get out of my world

Get up, get up, get out, get out
Get out of my world
Get up, get up, get out, get out
Get out of my world
Open your mouth now

Secret sign, knowing look
These sunny days will cook the book
Happy to take the misery
This mortal life can bring to me

Don't like the look of this town
What goes up must come down
Character is lost and found
On unfamiliar playing ground

(What in the world?)
What in the world?
(What in the world?)

(What in the world?)
What in, get out, get out, get out of my world
(What in the world?)
