Lyrics

Teflon Tourist
by Greg Englesson

Teflon Tourist
with their Teflon soul
sucking up the culture
into a Teflon hole
Going to your country
to relax and tan my skin
get a deal on memorabilia
photograph your hungry kin
witness the atrocities
taking in the sights
ignore the hypocrisy
going out to get a bite
Teflon Tourist
stuck up in their conceit
Teflon Tourist
living a lie that can’t be beat
Teflon Tourist
with their Teflon soul
sucking up the culture
into a Teflon hole
walking on the sandy beach
swimming in the sea
people sweat cents in a shop
in a Nike factory
I flew upon a jet
to a land where they only walk
people here can’t read or write
I type on my lap top
Teflon Tourist
stuck up in their conceit
Teflon Tourist
living a lie that can’t be beat
Teflon Tourist
with their Teflon soul
sucking up the culture
into a Teflon hole
I’ll analyze this culture
with my stories on Teflon
sure I’m an ethnocentric vulture
but at least I’ll have my fun
well it’s almost time for me to leave
go back home to my big house
where I’ll eat my snacks and watch TV
while you live hand to mouth
