There's no time to explain
I'm leaving on the last train
And heading out in grand style
Thinking I might be awhile
I'm looking out for the pearl
The one who'll come to rule the world
She's nineteen in blue jeans
Don't even know what love may mean
She's trying hard to get stoned
Her mind is coming undone
I'm looking out for the pearl
The one who'll come to rule the world
I'm looking out for the pearl
Do tell how it all ends
Where the road forks and where the road bends
So heartsick I can hardly speak
This road will be the death of me
I'm looking out for the pearl
The one who'll come to rule the world
I'm looking out for the pearl
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm
I'm leaving on the last train
And heading out in grand style
Thinking I might be awhile
I'm looking out for the pearl
The one who'll come to rule the world
She's nineteen in blue jeans
Don't even know what love may mean
She's trying hard to get stoned
Her mind is coming undone
I'm looking out for the pearl
The one who'll come to rule the world
I'm looking out for the pearl
Do tell how it all ends
Where the road forks and where the road bends
So heartsick I can hardly speak
This road will be the death of me
I'm looking out for the pearl
The one who'll come to rule the world
I'm looking out for the pearl
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm, try not to shake my drinking arm
Try to keep real calm
