[Verse]

Packed my bags for a new town

Yeah, I had to know

Had to see it for myself

[Verse 1]

Dug a hole under Route 66

Met a mole with some Hollywood dreams

He was saving up for a brand new thing

A shiny little stone, a diamond ring

For his little peanut, he'd do anything

[Chorus]

Saw a mole from another land

Dug the same dirt with a different hand

We just nodded, said goodbye

Underneath a different sky

[Verse 2]

Slept a while by the ancient walls

Met a mole in a market stall

He was showing off, so proud and tall

The two perfect peanuts he held for all

Said they were his treasure, his rise and fall

[Chorus]

Saw a mole from another land

Dug the same dirt with a different hand

We just nodded, said goodbye

Underneath a different sky

[Verse 3]

Tasted dust of marigold

Met a mole with a story told

Of the family treasure, centuries old

Two little peanuts, more precious than gold

A legacy of love, a sight to behold

[Verse 4]

Dug around the cherry tree roots

Met a mole in his finest suits

He was quiet, but his smile was proof

Of the tiny peanut he held as his truth

The perfect companion of his youth

[Bridge]

From New York to New Delhi

Beijing to Kyoto's belly

I saw them all, they were happy I guess

But I noticed one thing, I must confess...They all had their pride

Something to hold deep inside

I checked my pocket... it was just me

Guess I'm the only one... the only one

With an empty pocket... for the world to see.
