Private Idaho Lyrics

PRIVATE IDAHO (B52S)



woo hoo woo hoo woo hoo, woo hoo woo hoo

woo hoo hoo hoo, who hoo hoo hoo hoo



you're living in your own private idaho

living in your own private idaho

wa! on the ground like a wild potato

don't go on the patio

beware of the pool, blue bottomless pool

it leads you straight right through the gate that opens on the moon



you're living in your own private idaho

you're living in your own private idaho

keep off the pad, you're on the way (w/"your own private idaho")

watch out for signs that say in a driveway

don't let the chlorine in your eyes

blind you to the open surprise

yea we'll wait for you at, the bottom of the bottomless

blue, blue, blue, pool



you're living in your own private idaho, idaho

you're outta control, you're rivers that roll

you fell into the water and now you're n-idaho

get outta the state, get outta the state you're in

you better beware



you're living in your own private idaho

you're living in your own private idaho

keep off the patio, keep off the pad (w/"your own private idaho")

the bottom may be green but you better not be seen

water flowin in that leads you down

down to a pool, fraught with danger

it's a pool full of strangers



hey!



you're living in your own private idaho

where do i go from here, to a better state than this

a wet

don't be blind to the big surprise

swimmin round and round like the deadly hands of a radium clock

at the bottom, of the pool



GUITAR SOLO



i, i, i-daho

i, i, i-daho, woo ho

ah, ah (w/"get outta the state, get outta the state"



you're living in your own private idaho (all voices)

living in your own private, idaho
