Fay Lovsky - The Islands lyrics

Picture me under a Tum Tum tree, Sunshine shimmers on the ground The buzzing of a busy bumblebee, Rustling leaves are all around All I have to do is drive inland, He said I would like it Up the mountains to the fields, Do a little business with the monkeymen He said I should try it, merchandise under the seats Simon said, come see the island, ooh. The islands! Mañana Si's in a hurry but I do not worry There's plenty of fruit on the tree Ooh. The islands! Americans are playing badminton Under golden evening skies Simon says he's gonna buy me diamonds When all this is over we'll be high and dry and ahh... People practice for the Sunday choir Ngaoundre ngaoundre ngaoundre Yellow moon is on the rise, me and Simon sitting at the bar Watch the million fireflies Simon's gonna run for president Of the islands! Of the islands! Of the islands! I'm gonna be first lady . the islands Of the islands! I'm gonna be first lady of the banana republic I'm gonna be first lady of the banana republic (tsipa) I'm gonna be first lady of the banana republic
