Shut-In Tourist Lyrics

Oooh oooh ooohhh ooohhh
Oooh oooh ooohhh ooohhh

Every time you try to pick up just the pieces,
Feelin' bad for yourself.

Watchin' all the foreign cars for fags and breezes
From a window instead
From a window instead

Find it hard to see the good or face the music
Looking backwards again
Oversentimental staring half-way horizontal
Well I think you're a new man
Well I think you're a new man

So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat

Morning calls it's early birds, my babes and beagle,
Still resting their heads
They're waking up to noisy doors or stomping feet,
Of a restless old man
Of a restless old man

So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said

Oooh oooh ooohhh ooohhh
Oooh oooh ooohhh
Oooh oooh ooohhh ooohhh
Oooh oooh ooohhh

So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat what you said
So I repeat

This is about visiting his old dad who has old ideas and old man ways. His wife and kids are still sleeping. So the writer just agrees with old man about politics just to be a good son but doesn’t believe it really. Been there
