I hear a wind
Whistling air
Whispering
In my ear
Boy Mercury shooting through every degree
Oh girl dancing down those dirty and dusty trails
Take it hip to hip, rocket through the wilderness
Around the world the trip begins with a kiss
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without wings, without wheels
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without anything but the love we feel
Skip the airstrip to the sunset, yeah
Ride the arrow to the target, one
Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness
Around the world the trip begins with a kiss
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without wings, without wheels
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without anything but the love we feel
Fly the great big sky
See the great big sea
Kick through continents
Busting boundaries
Take it hip to hip, rocket through the wilderness
Around the world the trip begins with a kiss
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without wings, without wheels
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without anything but the love we feel
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Whistling air
Whispering
In my ear
Boy Mercury shooting through every degree
Oh girl dancing down those dirty and dusty trails
Take it hip to hip, rocket through the wilderness
Around the world the trip begins with a kiss
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without wings, without wheels
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without anything but the love we feel
Skip the airstrip to the sunset, yeah
Ride the arrow to the target, one
Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness
Around the world the trip begins with a kiss
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without wings, without wheels
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without anything but the love we feel
Fly the great big sky
See the great big sea
Kick through continents
Busting boundaries
Take it hip to hip, rocket through the wilderness
Around the world the trip begins with a kiss
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without wings, without wheels
Roam if you want to
Roam around the world
Roam if you want to
Without anything but the love we feel
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness
Take it hip to hip
Rocket through the wilderness

case in point:
- "Roam, if you want to..." a lovely and poetic invitation to explore anywhere one may like on the geography; the terrain of the physical body, visiting all it's best landmarks and leaving no stone unturned.
- "Take it hip to hip... Rock it through the wilderness"
My hat is _off_ to them now for starting so poetically and getting to this intent-laden description. the erogenous spaces between the hips, the very specific "wilderness" therein,
- "trip begins with a kiss" usually, yes. :)
Oh, I stop here: you can find the rest, :)
(apologies in advance for analyzing such an exuberant, unapologetic song!)

The video is rife with innuendo.
for Lynard Skynard's "Sweet Home Alabama"...my ears is bleeding.
what a voice that chick had.....amazing
great song too
Kate and Cindy both have amazing voices which are so unique to them.
I love the song Roam, and not just for its incredible beat, exceptional vocals, and catchy tune. What is meant to seem like an innocent song about vacations is actually a very dirty one about stretching one's erotic permissiveness to the outer boundaries. I picked up on it the very first time I heard and had to smile thinking how many clueless Moms and Dads there are with teeny bopper kids bopping to it!
Actually, one of the main lines in the song "around the world" is not that all that subliminal to those that know the naughty meaning to that phrase. For fear of being censored here, let's just say it involves the mouth of one partner and EVERY part of the nether regions of the other partner.
The fact that it is cute and "makes you happy" when you hear it is testimony to the B-52's view that sex IS fun and the ultimate trip and adventure.
the word is "anilingus"
great song from a daring band.
Cindy Williams is one of the voices.
Listen to her on "give me back my man" for a real treat !
You people brought it down to the gutter really fast.
Go ahead and dwell in the cesspool if that's what gets you off - but PLEASE don't define an inspiring song according to your own merely carnal limits.
And now, pray - DO tell...
Is "Rock Lobster" really all about deep-sea bestiality?
