Titel: KAILAKEE KAILAKO
Interpret: MIDDLE OF THE ROAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------
You say you're tired of T.V. Cartoons,
Searchin' for taxis on wet afternoons
Telephones ringing and grey city streets,
Sweet talking salesman in flashy boutiques.
I think you're right and I want you to know.
I've found a place where I think we should go.
Ah, KAILAKEE KAILAKO,
An island near North Venezuela
On KAILAKEE KAILAKO we'll spend the rest of our day
You'll do the fishing down by the shore.
I'll build a home with a coconut floor
You'll find a parrot, I'll teach it to speak
Tropical songbirds will sing you to sleep.
Then when we think we're alone on this land,
I'll find a footprint right there in the sand.
Ah, KAILAKEE KAILAKO . . . . .
When we get older, we'll think of today
Laugh at the taxman, who never got paid
Now that it's settled, we'll call up our friends,
Give them the things that we won't use again.
I think you're right and I want you to know,
I've found a place where I think we should go.
Ah, KAILAKEE KAILAKO . . . . .
