Lyrics

I know, I know but I gotta get up outta here, you know? I gotta go pay these bills, I got a show to do, you know? One time, for your mind Let's go to sleep in Paris And wake up in Tokyo Have a dream in New Orleans Fall in love in Chicago, man I love her, and I hate to leave her lonely Ring-ring went the iPhone, it was my homie He said, "Let's hit Japan, if we can make 'em jam We can make a hundred grand, spend it in the south of France" Nothing further, I jumped, grabbed my Goyard trunk Got ready to walk it out like Unk in my John Lennon Chucks That's when I heard murder "You're killing me, you're filling me with sorrow Sunrise, goodbyes, and missing you tomorrows" I turn to see my dream, love supreme queen Meanest thing on the scene cry I drop my bags in a flash, that's faster Than 180 on that dash, shirt to dry her tears And wipe the rain from my dear like Dasher You's the dame who's the username to all my passwords The reason I get fly is Ibn Jasper I even keep your picture in my passport Love, love Let's go to sleep in Paris Wake up in Tokyo Have a dream in New Orleans Fall in love in Chicago, man Then we can land in the motherland Camel-back across the desert sand And take a train, to Rome, or home Brazil, for real Wherever I go she goes Wherever I go she goes So let's keep it real, all in together, "Free Chill" Tell the stewardess to throw a movie on the reel Heat up my kosher meal, exchange my dollar bills Lean back in my first class seat and sleep Don't wake me 'til I land Where they barely understand what I speak But they nod to my beats I tell my fans who I am and they stand And they clap, they applaud, they love me, my God Otsukaresama deshita, or maybe au revoir A spree on Saint-Honoré, then back to Charles de Gaulle So I can get home and tell her everywhere that I been, and Everything that I done, and Tell her that she's the one, and, umm Let's go to sleep in Paris Wake up in Tokyo Have a dream in New Orleans Fall in love in Chicago, man Then we can land in the motherland Camel-back across the desert sand And take a train, to Rome, or home Brazil, for real Wherever I go she goes Wherever I go she goes Guess who's back in the house With a bunch of souvenirs and a smile for your mouth I really missed you, each and every night I kissed you In my dreams 'fore I went to sleep To la-la land to count them sheep I swear you're looking prettier than ever It's got to be a prophecy for us to stay together, evermore For better or, less or poor Or worth our weight in buried treasure, X's on the shore, uh I know my world tour's like war to you But Ian said, "Aloha", and Harley said, "Cheers" Julian said, "Bonjour", Big O was like, "Yeah!" Amanda and Le Messie want to know when we going there Edison sends his love, so does the rest of the club Of the international playboys and playgirls But I revoke my membership, all for My Tenderness She said, "Pursue your interests 'cause even if I'm ticketless I'll be there, uh, by your side In your heart, and on your mind" So, as I taxi down another runway I gotcha, who loves you bae Now bring it back now Let's go to sleep in Paris Wake up in Tokyo Have a dream in New Orleans Fall in love in Chicago, man Then we can land in the motherland Camel-back across the desert sand And take a train, to Rome, or home Brazil, for real Wherever I go she goes Wherever I go she goes Wherever I go she goes Wherever I go she goes
