Eldorado

Take a slow boat to China
The broken, the meek and the poor
Opportunity's knocking tonight
There's mud on the casino floor
A scandal in the car park at midnight
The janitor, the nurse and the priest
All the pretty things with their heels and their rings
They're trying to cash in on the feast

Here comes your ticket to freedom
Tell me where it is that we can go
Yeah, there's room for the wounded
In the light over El Dorado
El Dorado

Slip through the eye of the needle
They're howling at the plate glass door
Boats are coming, the tide keeps a-running
They keep on coming back for more
Oh, a string of snow white horses
Oh, the princess in her evening gown
"Climb aboard, my love," the coachman cries
"There's only one destination in town"

Oh, here comes your ticket to freedom
Tell me where it is that we can go
We're watching refugees weep in the light
Over El Dorado
El Dorado

Oh, here comes your ticket to freedom
Tell me where it is that we can go
Yeah, there's room for the wounded
In the light over El Dorado
El Dorado
El Dorado
El Dorado
El Dorado
El Dorado
El Dorado
