lyrics

I've flown across horizons lost
Wassailed the seven seals
Witnessed stars return to dust
But none've the shock of the real

And If you wanna believe
Love is all that you need
Come on baby say wha?
S'aint Shangri-La
S'aint Shangri-La La La

I've crawled the urban jungle
With my chances wearing thin
Been ostracized and kicked aside
But I've took it on the chin

Drank champagne in the pouring rain
Dreaming of afar
Hoping someday to get a glimpse of
Shangri-La

Shangri-La, this ain't Shangri-La
Shangri-La, this ain't Shangri-La

Tripped down the magic mountain
'most drowned in the holy sea
Streaked the sky with skeins of swine
Oh but didn't Hell freeze

But never have I been succoured
By deus ex-machina
S'aint Shangri-La
S'aint Shangri-La La La

Shangri-La, this ain't Shangri-La
Shangri-La, this ain't Shangri-La
