[Intro] [Lazy offbeat reggae rhythm guitar, warm melodic bass, bright Hammond organ bubbles] Toucan in my kitchen, Toucan in the hall, Toucan, whatcha doing? Why you looking at me so? He pecked at me, Then flew into the palm tree, Not enough coconuts, So he's blaming it on me. [Verse 1] [Unhurried reggae groove, soft bongos, subtle Rhodes piano, warm melodic bass groove] I drink a rum, (Mmm) I like it very nice, Caramel and chocolate, Little sweetness with the spice. Big and bombastic, Everything feeling right, Give me my lover And the midday sunlight. Patting on my bongos, Bare feet on the ground, Toucan in the palm leaves Dancing to the sound. [Pre-Chorus] She likes it dirty, She likes it nice, Not too flirty, She'll look you in the eye. No need for talking, No need to rush, Sun getting hotter And I'm feeling that touch. [Chorus] My coco baby, My coconut, Getting flirty-flirty While the rhythm's warming up. Sweet little rhythm, Rum in my cup, Toucan can do a dance, So turn it up! My coco baby, Come give me some, Chocolate, caramel, Sweet dark rum. Under the palm tree, Midday sun, Me and my lover Till the afternoon's done. [Verse 2] (Mmm) that's tasty, (Mmm) very nice, Pour me another, Let me roll the dice. No need to hurry, We can take our time, I can go all night Just watching you unwind. Toucan on the rooftop, Watching from above, Probably wondering What's become of us. I raise my glass, He gives one little squawk, Then he steals my coconut And takes off down the walk. [Pre-Chorus] She likes it dirty, She likes it nice, Not too flirty, She'll look you in the eye. Bongos getting louder, Sun sinking low, Everybody moving When the sweet rum flows. [Chorus] My coco baby, My coconut, Getting flirty-flirty While the rhythm's warming up. Sweet little rhythm, Rum in my cup, Toucan can do a dance, So turn it up! My coco baby, Come give me some, Chocolate, caramel, Sweet dark rum. Under the palm tree, Golden sun, Me and my lover Now the evening has begun. [Breakdown] [Half-time organic rhythm, soft organ swell, hand percussion] Caramel note and a Poppa-pom-pom, (Poppa-pom-pom!) Bongo on the left and a Rum-pum-pum. Toucan on the table, Coconut gone, Everybody waiting For the beat to come on... (Flirty-flirty with a coconut!) LOVER! [Instrumental Break] [Full live ensemble, punchy brass accents, warm bass, relaxed offbeat reggae guitar] [Final Chorus] My coco baby, My coconut, Getting flirty-flirty While the rhythm's warming up. Big bombastic, Right and tight, Dancing with my lover In the warm moonlight. My coco baby, Sweet dark rum, Chocolate, caramel, Poppa-pom-pom! Toucan can do a dance, No sweat, run, Give me my lover When the whole day is done!
