We make profits, got no time to waste But the rich still rich & the poor the same fed up with my job fed up with my life I wanna live the city now working like a dog for a boss I hate & No time for friends & no time for love I decide to quit & to take my chance I wanna live the city now
I wanna sleep under the coconut trees I wanna sleep under the coconut trees I wanna sleep under the coconut trees It the place where I long to be
Gotta find a native girl to scratch my back I’m gonnna swim with the fish under the blue skie I’m gonna have my share of the apple pie Here I long to be Gotta drink all night & sleep all day Rum & coca cola & bossa nova Chicks in bikini doing the hula Here I’m gonna lay
I pick & choose the life i want & say aloha to the big dirty city Hawaian sunset on the deep blue sea Here the place i wanna stay Rock the place with a Hukulele Rock it rock it all night long To the sound of the bongo do the mambo C’mon c’mon let’s go
I wanna sleep under the coconut trees I wanna sleep under the coconut trees I wanna sleep under the coconut trees It the place where I long to be
