Lyrics
TAJIKISTAN
Intro
Nine to five,
Work-a-day,
Wasting time just to earn some pay,
But in the end, it’s all the same,
I’m just a number, not a name.
Chorus
Well, I’ve got two tickets to Tajikistan
I’m headed on over gunna start a new band
Build myself a life in the land of Khan.
Strumming on a sitar in the “Valley of Sand.”
Verse 1
Got fed up with suburban life
The constant naggings of a middle aged wife.
Called up airlines, and I booked a flight
Take me to the airport, gunna leave tonight.
Chorus
Well, I’ve got two tickets to Tajikistan…
Bridge
Lightin’ up the hooka in Pakistan
Whirlin’ with the dervish in Kyrgyzstan
Hangin’ with the “Burkas” in Uzbekistain
But no of ‘em can swing like in Tajikistan.
Verse 2
I don’t need stress, and I don’t want drama,
I’m just dust on the path of Muhammed.
like Rumi said:
“I am neither East nor West. . .,”
Just take me to a place where I can rest.
Chorus
Well, I’ve got two tickets to Tajikistan…
