	This is an original song I wrote in my car while driving into San Francisco in June of 1999. The song is written from the point of view of someone at the same time both afraid and in awe of international travel. There's also some ignorance of foreign cultures involved in the subject's point of view, hence the reference to the shores of Paraguay, a land-locked country.
	Credits: Victor Andersen: Vocals, all instruments
	Story Behind the Song This is a demo recorded in one take on 10/31/02 and is to be considered a preliminary version of the song. Lyrics I've never been to Peru And I'm not sure I ever will Cause if I went to Peru I think I'd be there still I've never been to Japan And I don't think that I'll go I would feel lost in Japan Cause there's so much I don't know Places to go, people to see Oh no, that's not for me I'll just stay home, watch some TV Cause it feels good to be alone In a country of my own I've never visited Guam I'd rather just stay right here Though all my friends say that Guam Is quite nice this time of year I've never traveled to Spain And I doubt that I can Cause if I journeyed to Spain I'd come back a different man Places to go, people to see Oh no, that's not for me I'll just stay home, watch some TV Cause it feels good to be alone In a country of my own All this myriad of destinations seems so far away The universe is way too big and it gets bigger every day The seashells that you find upon the rocky shores of Paraguay Are probably no different than the ones I find here in the bay And if the future finds commuters taking shuttle trips to Mars You can find me wallowing inside my crappy local bars The atmosphere is comforting and they know me as a regular So whils you're out climbing the Alps I'll sit here playing my guitar Places to go, people to see Oh no, that's not for me I'll just stay home, watch some TV Cause it feels good to be alone In a country of my own It feels good to be alone In a country of my own
