my favourite album track atm

it's about kids desperate to get out of watever they're in (probably home maybe relationship=undecided) , they don't know wat they want but they don't want this 'Houdini look, you don't know what you're running away from'

i love the over riding Wizard of Oz theme, v clever 'Dorothy was right tho' = no place like home.

Don't wish your life away whilst you're at home, i think this is also a bit bitter on 'monkeys behalf who probably take comfort in being at home now more than ever.

love it
