lyrics

Living high on the high life
Crayfish and Krug
Another Queen Street cowboy
In a Brioni suit
Coked every weekend
With a high end honey
A functioning addiction
To other people's money

We didn't stop when the market was tanking
We didn't stop till we hit the West Coast
Now the SFO and the denizens of banking
Want to turn us into toast

I've got a suitcase of money and a Swiss passport
Holed up in Karamea at the Last Resort
Drinking Rey Sol Anejo, shooting lizards for sport
Holed up in Karamea at the Last Resort
Holed up in Karamea at the Last Resort
Holed up in Karamea at the Last Resort

They say there's gold in the hills
There's fish in the sea
And money that grows
On a money tree
Now my DB9
Is waiting out back
Take me to the mines
On the Fenian Track

From the Opara river to the Blackball Hilton
The wild west coast is the final frontier
Lost down here in splendid isolation
With the ghosts of the pioneers

It's a long way from dining in Devonport
Holed up in Karamea at the Last Resort
Villa incognito, who would have thought?
Holed up in Karamea at the Last Resort
Holed up in Karamea at the Last Resort
Holed up in Karamea at the Last Resort
