Verse: The last of some bad debris Falls through the coconut trees Twilight claims me Inching calmly Through restaurant radios Came a calypso Stood with elongo Inside a shadow
Chorus: Elongo, Elongo from here to san pedro we draw lines in the sand Elongo, how long though Until we will get back home The sun is setting low
Verse 2: Will youth come and go Singing the songs they know Like Mother Teresa A vicious Siddhartha And you fly paper planes A cow wake is where they lay the roots of your family The guns of your history
Chorus: Elongo, Elongo from here to san pedro we draw lines in the sand Elongo, how long though Until we will get back home The sun is setting low
Bridge: Is it sailing away Or am I waiting in vain Do you break all your chains For it to all wash away
Chorus: Elongo, Elongo from here to san pedro we draw lines in the sand Elongo, how long though Until we will get back home The sun is setting low
Outro: Elongo, Elongo From here to San Pedro Elongo, Elongo From here to San Pedro We draw lines in the sands We draw lines in the sands
