chocolate and hawaii

from boat with no oars by mary bue

lyrics

you aquarians keep bringing the magic
and libra keeps the balance nigh
don't sit alone in bed tonight
and dream about the week in hawaii

christmas approaches
a long drastic feat
and i am gorging, gorging
as though i've nothing to eat
belly's full of chocolate and flies
and the sugar high
gets me by tonight
and the piano keys
and the sparkling seas
and the dreams of paris nights
i'm a romantic, boys!
i need the fuschia roses
and i need the honey and the lime

i like the letters
and i like the envelopes
and i like the feathers
and i like the horoscopes
but capricorn, you are so quiet
and cancer brings only sand and water
i'll roam this earth
and i'll tread in winter boots
i'll speak all the ballyhoo
and i'll tickle all your sweet taboo
but i don't do it right
cuz here i am alone tonight
with thoughts of chocolate and hawaii
