Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
(Take me home) Oh, won’t you please take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
(Take me home) Oh, won’t you please take me home
Strapped in the chair of the city gas chamber
Why I’m here I can’t quite remember
The surgeon general says it’s hazardous to breathe
I’d have another cigarette but I can’t see
Tell me who you’re gonna believe
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
(Take me home) Oh, won’t you please take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
(Take me home) Oh, won’t you please take me home
So far away, so far away, so far away, so far away
Captain America’s been torn apart
Now he’s a court jester with a broken heart
He said- turn me around and take me back to the start
I must be losin’ my mind- “Are you blind?”
I’ve seen it all a million times
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
(Take me home) Oh, won’t you please take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
(Take me home) Oh, won’t you please take me home
Oh, won’t you please take me home
