Lyrics

Acapulco Gold

Common cancer - on the telephone

Dead stop radio - try an suck a hole

Gif wise tongue - dead gone monotone

It's all around your big white ears

A life in the day - dream on dreamin' on

Milk my mind - keep on keepin' on

Make me cream - have a taste son

10 000 Miles under the soul

Leave the story untold

But the map's already unfold

Everybody's soul searchin' for

Acapulco gold

Hands up raised high

Keep your mind blowin'

Won't you pay no mind

Got your face glowin'

Keep your fi-hi

With my mind blowin'

It's been travellin' to wherever it should

Leave the story untold

But the map's already unfold

Everybody's soul searching for

Acapulco gold
