Thomas Dolby
Field Work (1987 Version)
[Chorus]
Brush up on my field work
Better brush up on my field work
Gonna get my fingers dirty
Better brush up on my field work

[Verse 1]
One thing I need
Is to understand this jungle
Before I can untangle
A part of me that's fungoid

Was a hundred and three
When the world was still a baby
But instinct's an equation
You could program in an android

[Chorus]
Brush up on my field work
Better brush up on my field work
Gonna get my fingers dirty
Better brush up on my field work

[Verse 2]
Somewhere inside
There's a place where we can travel
A riddle to unravel
A code to unscramble
[Chorus]
Better brush up on my field work
Better brush up on my field work
Gonna get my fingers dirty
Better brush up on my field work

[Verse 3]
Somewhere inside me
Are the caves of Iwo Jima
The sands of Arizona
Better brush up on my field work

[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
Somewhere inside me
Are the caves of Iwo Jima
The sands of Arizona
Better brush up on my field work

[Chorus]
Brush up on my field work
Better brush up on my field work
Gonna get my fingers dirty
Gonna brush up on my field work
Brush up on my field work
Better brush up on my field work
Gonna get my fingers dirty
Better brush up on my field work

[Outro]
Field work (hey!)
Field work (hey!)
Field work (hey!)
Field work (hey!)
