Hawaii by Certainly, Sir Lyrics

You'd be better if you had a steady gig
You could tend bar
Be the one who turns the pig
Over leaning flames and
Embers red and low
As inspired by our neighbor volcano
You'd be better off not working anymore

Come on don't you wish you never tried?
You'd be better with your ankles tied
Without death what is longevity?
Hawaii

Angel hair, you said
Complaining to the chef
Tie it back and throw away
Whatever's left
You'd be better pulling nails
Out of the walls
I'd be better jumping off of waterfalls
But the office is a great big hug
Bars of light, the endless crew cut rug
You call this an anniversary?
Hawaii!

Scent of doom came in the room
The talk shut off way too soon
Passing time makes grit and grime
To keep you busy later

The cameras are hanging
You're wearing a lei
There's no need to move
For the rest of the day
Arms getting soft
And the skin's coming off
You're as tan as the past
And only hours away

Get off your Parnassus, flee your Xanadu
Later El Dorado, none of you are true
Heaven's cloudy, baby
Hell is just too hot

You'd be better getting on the plane
Who knows when
We'll have the chance again?
Just like everywhere I've ever been
Every man's an island, I'm seven
