Tourist Trap Songtext
von Sam Roberts Band

Orion the Hunter loosened his belt and sat
Down with the Maitre ′d
Said I'm a cosmological tourist trap on heaven′s radar screen
This ain't how I want to live but it's how I′m living now
I gave everything that I have to give but it′s never enough somehow

I want what I want and I get what I have
But the truth is all too clear
We all fall apart for love
And if the world is a tourist trap then we're all just visitors here
And we all fall apart for love

Every night when Andromeda calls me
I can feel that she′s reeling me in
I can't fight cause the woman enthralls me
And I know that I never can win
And if Cassiopeia won′t let me see her
I have to cease and desist
And if all I have is just a bow and a belt
Then how can I be sure I even exist?


I want what I want and I get what I have
But the truth is all too clear
We all fall apart for love
And if the world is a tourist trap then we're all just visitors here
And we all fall apart for love

Oooohh I′m calling you as my witness
Oooohh so don't fall before you make it to the finish

See how far we have to go
Look to the stars if you need to know

See how far we have to go
Look to the stars if you need to know

Let the world come back to it's senses
I′m staying here on the edge
I′m getting tired of always mending the fences
I wanna walk on the ledge
On a night full of stars you were dimmer than most
But it was plain to see
Between Elvis and the Holy Ghost
You were coming looking for me


I want what I want and I've got what I have
But the truth is all too clear
We all fall apart for love
And if the world is a tourist trap
Then we all just visitors here
And we all fall apart for love

See how far we have to go
When I finish the game, you′ll remember my name
Look to the stars if you need to know
Put me back in the game, you'll remember my name

See how far we have to go
Look to the stars if you need to know.
