Hawaiian songs that don't sound Hawaiian
|
Man, it's so hot down here that I'm frying
|
Two eggs on the sidewalk, it's a hundred in the shade
|
Sippin' on a soda, man, you guys got it made
|
|
Elvis in Hawaii with G.I. Joe
|
Tourists in grass skirts dancing by the ocean
|
Home Shopping Network in a neon glow
|
Umbrellas in my drink while you're rubbing in the lotion
|
Hawaiian songs that don't sound Hawaiian
|
And lonely young girls in their rooms left crying
|
Forgotten birthdays and mislayed plans
|
"Dear John" letters and neon tans
|
|
Faded old postcards from far away places
|
Ice box winters with ten feet of snow
|
The smoky old bar rooms and the hollowed faces
|
I'd rather be where the balmy breezes blow
|
Hawaiian songs that don't sound Hawaiian
|
The only things certain are taxes and dying
|
Family vacations and mislayed plans
|
"Dear John" letters and neon tans
|
|
We got vodka from Russia and Iowa corn
|
Nagasaki sushi and cigars from Cuba
|
Computer romance and internet porn
|
I dream of beaches with long boards and scuba
|
Hawaiian songs that don't sound Hawaiian
|
Man, it's so cold up here that I'm crying
|
Don't put your tongue on a flagpole it might rip off the skin
|
I'm drinking bargain priced vodka and eating hot dogs from the tin
|
