I'm Looking (For a World) Songtext
A paper pack of sugar, a plastic spoon and knife
A paper cup, a paper plate and a different boy each night
I′m getting tired of a paper and a plastic world
One that's not a lasting world, that′s how I feel
I'm looking for a silver and a crystal world
Not an artificial world but one that is real
Shiny plastic flowers, electronic steeple chimes
Seem to be becoming the symbols of our times
But I'm looking for a simple sandy suntan world
Not a handy sunlamp world but one that is true
(I′m searching for) the kind and honest joy that I′ll find in a boy like you
A paper cup, a paper plate and a different boy each night
I′m getting tired of a paper and a plastic world
One that's not a lasting world, that′s how I feel
I'm looking for a silver and a crystal world
Not an artificial world but one that is real
Shiny plastic flowers, electronic steeple chimes
Seem to be becoming the symbols of our times
But I'm looking for a simple sandy suntan world
Not a handy sunlamp world but one that is true
(I′m searching for) the kind and honest joy that I′ll find in a boy like you
