Big Day Lyrics

Taking our time before its through
Passing our days in old shoes
Sister - think I'm returning to Peru
Wish that I never came here
They can't p***ounce my name here
Everyone asks me "Where's Peru ?"

In Peru we've lengthened the day
In Peru we've strengthened the dollar
There are mountains piercing our skies
And the ocean at our shores

I will save up all of my wages
Even retail crummy cosmetics
I will work my passage in stages
As the winter slips away.
In Peru we've lengthened the day
In Peru we've strengthened the dollar
There are mountains piercing our skies
And the ocean at our shores

I will save up all of my wages
Even retail crummy cosmetics
I will work my passage in stages
As the winter slips away.
Miles of golden beaches
Excellent wines and features
Mister - take a week off in Gay Peru.

Penitent monks to stare at
Colonial dons in old straw hats
Everyone's there in Gay Peru
Oo-poo-Peru.
