Lyrics

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo You're living in your own private Idaho Living in your own private Idaho (oh) Underground like a wild potato Don't go on the patio Beware of the pool, blue bottomless pool It leads you straight right through the gate that opens on the pool You're living in your own private Idaho You're living in your own private Idaho Keep off the path, beware of the gate (your own private Idaho) Watch out for signs that say "hidden driveways" (your own private Idaho) Don't let the chlorine in your eyes (woah, woah) Blind you to the awful surprise (woah-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah) That awaits for you at the bottom of the bottomless blue, blue, blue pool You're livin' in your own private Idaho, Idaho You're out of control, the rivers that roll You fell into the water and down to Idaho Get out of the state, get out of the state you're in You better beware You're living in your own private Idaho You're living in your own private Idaho Keep off the patio (your own private Idaho) Keep off the path (your own private Idaho) The lawn may be green, but you better not be seen (woah, woah) Walkin' through the gate that leads you down (woah-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah) Down to a pool fraught with danger, it's a pool full of strangers Hey! You're living in your own private Idaho Where do I go from here to a better state than this? Well, don't be blind to the big surprise Swimming 'round and 'round like the deadly hand of a radium clock At the bottom of the pool I-I-Idaho, I-I-Idaho Woah-oh, woah, woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh Ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah Get out of the state (ah-ah-ah-ah) Get out of the state (ah-ah-ah-ah) You're living in your own private Idaho Livin' in your own private Idaho
