Going on a Trip...

...Gonna search the world over, for a "EuroTrash Girl." Cracker, doing the best song for a wandering boy.

Plaintive and languid, meandering song. I have to wonder (since the original is over 8 minutes long), whether or not the songwriter just had a long thought and needed to complete it. Just like when a haiku won't fit in one 5-7-5 scheme, but needs more. Trust me on this.

This is a great song. I wish I were a stoner, I think I would enjoy the song a bit more. It really makes you think, at times, about what may be if you give into ennui and start meandering. Could you end up like the character in the song? Could you end up like me? Who made liquid soap and why?

In any case, it's an awesome song. Enjoy. I'm going to bed.
