"The National Park" lyrics

"The National Park"

Far and away the time will slip
I'm so glad we went on that trip
With all the others afraid of the dark
Lying awake in the National Park

Hey, was that a rhinoceros?
The park ranger said, of course it was
One of the last left in the wild
And the wild is a thousand miles
Of National Park
Of National Park
National Park

Living in balance in a state of bliss
Was the world all once like this?
But now nature's like a work of art
An exhibition in the National Park
The National Park
Oh, the National Park
National Park

All the beauty in the light
The beauty in the darkness

Back to the city, I'm on my way
A shot of bourbon and urban decay
Putting the groceries in the shopping cart
At night I dream of the National Park
The National Park
Oh, the National Park
The National Park

The beauty in the light
The beauty in the darkness
The darkness
The darkness
