Looking For A Place To Happen
Seeking Life's Essence: A Journey Through Mystery and Reflection
Lyrics
I've got a job, I explore, I follow every little whiff
I have a job, I explore, and I follow every little hint
And I want my life to smell like this
I want my life to have a distinctive and memorable essence
To find a place, an ancient race
Searching for a place associated with an ancient race
The kind you'd like to gamble with
A place that involves an element of risk or excitement
Where they'd stamp on burning bags of shit
Describing a unique place where unconventional things happen
Looking for a place to happen
Actively seeking a location with significant events or occurrences
Making stops along the way, hey
Making stops along the journey
Wayward ho, away we go
Setting off on an unpredictable and spontaneous journey
It's a shame to leave this masterpiece
Reluctant to leave a remarkable creation or experience
With it's gallery gods and it's garbage-bag trees
Describing the surroundings with artistic and metaphorical language
So I'll paint a scene, from memory,
Creating a mental image or representation from memory
So I'd know who murdered me
Expressing a desire to understand the cause of one's own demise
It's a vain pursuit, but it helps me to sleep
Acknowledging the pursuit of vanity as a coping mechanism
Looking for a place to happen
Continuing the search for a significant and meaningful experience
Making stops along the way, hey
Making stops along the journey
Looking for a place to happen
Emphasizing the ongoing quest for a remarkable place or event
Making stops along the way, hey
Making stops along the journey
Looking for a place to happen
Continuing the search for a significant and meaningful experience
Making stops along the way, hey
Making stops along the journey
Jacques Cartier, right this way
Referring to Jacques Cartier, a historical figure, inviting exploration
I'll put your coat up on the bed
Offering hospitality to a visitor, suggesting a sense of welcome
Hey man you've got the real bum's eye for clothes
Complimenting the visitor's unique sense of fashion
And come on in, sit right down,
Inviting the visitor to sit down and engage in conversation
No you're not the first to show
Acknowledging that the visitor is not the first to be in this situation
We've all been here since, God, who knows?
Highlighting the timeless nature of the shared experience
Looking for a place to happen
Continuing the search for a significant and meaningful experience
Making stops along the way, hey
Making stops along the journey
Looking for a place to happen
Emphasizing the ongoing quest for a remarkable place or event
Making stops along the way, hey
Making stops along the journey
Jacques Cartier, right this way
Referring again to Jacques Cartier, maintaining the historical theme
I'll put your coat up on the bed
Repeating the gesture of hospitality and offering a place to rest
You've got the real bum's eye for clothes
Reiterating the compliment on the visitor's unique fashion sense
Come on in, sit right down,
Encouraging the visitor to join the collective experience
We've all been here since, God, who knows?
Stressing the timeless nature of the shared journey and experience
