Men At Work – Stay At Home lyrics

Outside these, four walls lies, anarchy babe
Unnatural acts and sights abound
Glass glaring, eyes staring, young pairing, maybe
What does the world care if I'm not around

Cos, I think I'd rather stay at home
With people I know
I could watch the whole thing on tv
And the neighbours never know

The bright lights, are like traps, for the unwary
You need a guard just to walk at night
Fights flaring, bombs scaring, pants tearing, maybe
How can you say it will be alright

And, I think I'd rather stay at home
And my face not show
I could watch the whole thing on tv
And the neighbours never know, they'd never know
Cos, I think I'd rather stay at home
Where cold winds don't blow
I could watch the whole thing on tv
And the neighbours never know, they'd never know

Outside these, four shores lie, countries of strangers
They have water that you shouldn't drink
Bad driving, crime thriving, life's full of dangers
It's not that I'm frightened to walk on the brink.

But I think I'd rather stay at home
With people I know
I could watch the whole thing on tv
And the neighbours never know, they'd never know
Think I'd rather stay at home
Where the bad guys never go, they never go
Stay at home
With people you know, people you know
Think I'd rather stay at home
Where the pimples never show, they never show
Stay at home
Stay at home
