about

Inspired by Questions Of Travel, by Michelle De Kretser.

lyrics

Some say that travel
Is like an escape
Escape from your own self
Escape from your own place
A way for to find
Another type of you
Kang Kang burru!
Chin Chin Noru!
Run Run Run
Kang Kang burru!
Chin Chin Noru!
Run Run Run
So kiss the Blarney Stone for me
And if you get the chance
Give my dearest love ‘Oui Oui’
To the President of France
Bring me back a Pyramid
Or else a Spanish comb
And don’t forget that I’m all set
To welcome you back home
And don’t forget that I’m all set
To well come you back home
Kang Kang burru!
Chin Chin Noru!
Run Run Run
Kang Kang burru!
Chin Chin Noru!
Run Run Run
