Lords Of The Atlas

(album: No Fuel Left For The Pilgrims - 1989)

In my travelling heart, there's an urge to see
Foreign lands and alien birds, new stories that no one heard
To stick a pin in the globe, and to believe and hope
There's a whole new world to unravel
As far as a boyscout can travel
Company of adventurers, on the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness, round the world and back
Card carrying members, ooh we're the lords of the atlas

To see god standing on a local hill
And to know there's forests unthrod still
Don't look back when you climb the stairs
I'm travelling the mental fares
Going through eternal cloud land
To the ends of the earth
And after 2000 steps of climbing
I know it was the whole trip worth!

Company of adventurers, on the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness, round the world and back
Card carrying members, ooh we're the lords of the atlas
Company of adventurers, on the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness, round the world and back
Card carrying members, ooh we're the lords of the atlas
We're the lords! Yeah we're the lords of the atlas
Yeah, we're the lords of the atlas

Sitting crosslegged on Persian rugs
Addicted to a 1000 drugs
Our flags nailed to the mast
Captain says: forward fast!

Company of adventurers, on the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness, round the world and back
Card carrying members, ooh we're the lords of the atlas
Company of adventurers, on the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness, round the world and back
Card carrying members, ooh we're the lords of the atlas
We're the lords, lords of the atlas
Caesars of the wilderness
Card carrying members, we're the lords of the atlas
We're the lords
Yeah, we're the lords of the atlas...
