Verse 1] My phone says I got twelve things due My boss says, “Can you jump on at two?” I looked outside, saw that sky turn blue And thought, absolutely not Threw a shirt, some shades, and a half-full tank Told the GPS, “Take me where the palm trees hang” Don’t need five stars, don’t need no plan Just point me south and let it stop [Pre-Chorus] Where the ice is cold The music’s loud And nobody’s talking about work right now [Chorus] I wanna be somewhere with a tiki bar Cheap sunglasses and an old guitar Feet in the sand, sun dropping low Some little place where nobody knows What day it is Or where we parked Just a neon sign coming on after dark Yeah, somewhere Anywhere As long as there’s a tiki bar [Verse 2] There’s a guy named Joe making rum drinks strong A sunburnt couple dancing to the wrong song Somebody’s yelling, “Play another one!” Like tomorrow never learned our names There’s a dog asleep underneath a stool A busted fan trying hard to keep it cool And every bad idea sounds pretty good After number two in a hurricane [Chorus] I wanna be somewhere with a tiki bar Cheap sunglasses and an old guitar Feet in the sand, sun dropping low Some little place where nobody knows What day it is Or where we parked Just a neon sign coming on after dark Yeah, somewhere Anywhere As long as there’s a tiki bar [Break – half spoken] No reservations. No dress code. No five-year plan. Just… “You want another?” Yeah. Probably. [Bridge – picks up faster] Let the mainland keep the deadlines Let the traffic keep the cars I found everything I needed Under Christmas lights and stars And if somebody comes looking Tell ’em I didn’t get too far— [Final Chorus – bigger] I’m somewhere with a tiki bar Cheap sunglasses and an old guitar Feet in the sand, moon coming up Somebody just handed me a plastic cup Don’t know the time Don’t really care There’s a salty breeze blowing everywhere Yeah, somewhere Right here Exactly where the good times are Somewhere with a tiki bar [Outro] Yeah… tell Monday I’ll call it back.
