We're climbing to the top of that mountain, boys
Just because it's there
Then we're jumping off the edge of the Western world
Just because we've been dared
Then we're digging a hole deep in the ground
Oil, gold, Chinatown
Then the party's starting when the sun goes down
On the other side of the world
The people in England are standing in line
Queuing up to see the Queen
Between the Royal Weddings and the kids on the dole
The sun sets comfortably
And back in the States it's we three kings
Of greed, guns and gasoline
And a racial chase through Georgia streets
On the other side of the world
So around and around and around we go
We are here, that's the law I know
We might as well like it, that's the gospel
On the other side of the world
There's young people falling in love
There's young people falling in love
There's young people falling in love
There's young people falling in love
Everywhere I go
Hope hides behind those angry eyes
Denim collars against the cold
I got a letter today from Tokyo
A little Japanese girl that I'll never know
She's eating pizza and singing Let My People Go
On the other side of the world
