ROAD TO MANDALAY
Music and lyrics by Laurie Anderson

Tommy Tommy Tommy
Left his Burma girl lazy at the sea.
Can’t get this song out of my mind.
It plays all night and all day
On the road to Mandalay
where the flying fishes play.
On the road to Mandalay
where the flying fishes play.
Who wrote that? Kipling?
No. Where am I?

There is something shining north north east.
It is my plane. Her skin so smooth.
She shines like an English biscuit tin.
