I left my heart to the sappers round Khe Sanh
And my soul was sold with my cigarettes
To the blackmarket man
I've had the Vietnam cold turkey
I left my heart to the sappers round Khe Sanh
And my soul was sold with my cigarettes
To the blackmarket man
I've had the Vietnam cold turkey
From the ocean to the Silver City
And it's only other vets could understand
About the long forgotten dockside guarantees
How there were no V-Day heroes in 1973
How we sailed into Sydney Harbour
Saw an old friend but couldn't kiss her
She was lined, and I was home to the lucky land
And she was like so many more from that time on
Their lives were all so empty
Till they found their chosen one
And their legs were often open
But their minds were always closed
And their hearts were held in fast suburban chains
And the legal pads were yellow
Hours long, pay-packets lean
And the telex writers clattered
Where the gunships once had been
But the car parks made me jumpy
And I never stopped the dreams
Or the growing need for speed and Novocain
So I worked across the country end to end
Tried to find a place to settle down
Where my mixed up life could mend
Held a job on an oil-rig
Flying choppers when I could
But the nightlife nearly drove me round the bend
And I've travelled round the world from year to year
And each one found me aimless
One more year the worse for wear
And I've been back to South East Asia
And the answer sure ain't there
But I'm drifting north, to check things out again
Yes I am!
You know the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone
Only seven flying hours, and I'll be landing in Hong Kong
There ain't nothing like the kisses
From a jaded Chinese princess
I'm gonna hit some Hong Kong mattress all night long
Well the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone
Yeah the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone
And it's really got me worried
I'm goin' nowhere and I'm in a hurry
And the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone
我离开了我的心脏给工兵轮溪山
而我的灵魂，用我的香烟出售
到黑市男人
我已经在越南冷火鸡
从海洋到银城
而且只有其他兽医能理解
关于早已被人遗忘码头担保
怎么没有V日英雄在1973年
我们如何驶入悉尼港
看到了一个老朋友，但不能吻她
她两旁，我是家庭对土地的幸运
她就像上那么多的从那个时候
他们的生活都如此空虚
直到他们找到自己的真命天子
而他们的腿是常开
但他们的心地永远关闭
他们的心是在快速郊区连锁店举行
和法律垫黄色
小时之久，付费包瘦
和电传作家唠唠
凡武装直升机曾到过
但停车场让我心惊肉跳
而且我从来没有停止过梦想
或需求不断增长的速度和奴佛卡因
所以，我全国各地的端到端合作
想找个地方安顿下来
凡我混合了生活会补
召开石油钻塔工作
飞菜刀时，我可以
但夜生活几乎使我拐弯
而且我周游了世界每年
而每一个找到我漫无目的
一年以上的磨损恶化
而且我已经回到东南亚
得到的回答肯定是不存在的
但我北漂，再次检查的事情了
我是！
你知道最后一架飞机从悉尼几乎消失的
只有七飞行小时，我会登陆香港
有没有什么样的吻
从厌倦中国公主
我会击出了一些香港的床垫整夜
那么最后的飞机离开悉尼的几乎没有了
是啊，最后飞机离开悉尼的几乎没有了
这真的让我担心
我要去哪儿冒出来，我很着急
而最后飞机离开悉尼的几乎没有了
