Lyrics

Well, there's a two o'clock flight down to key west
I could catch it if I leave now, I bet
Where the steel drums sound while sun sinks down in the water
I got five vacation days comin'
I spend my forty-hour week beach-bummin':
I won't pack a lot of clothes 'cause where I'm gonna go, it don't matter

I wanna ride the waves, tan my skin
Dance with a girl I'll never see again
An' get tattooed
Catch some fish, catch a bus
Bend some rules just because I want to
I'm gonna open wide, take a ride
An' taste the good life

Aw, paradise never gets borin'
I might even do a little surf-boardin'
Catch a ride, if I can, with the parachute man
An' go soarin'

I wanna ride the waves, tan my skin
Dance with a girl I'll never see again
An' get tattooed
Catch some fish, catch a bus
Bend some rules just because I want to
I'm gonna open wide, take a ride
An' taste the good life
(Ah ooh.)

I wanna ride the waves, tan my skin
Dance with a girl I'll never see again
An' get tattooed
Catch some fish, catch a bus
Bend some rules just because I want to
I'm gonna open wide, take a ride
An' taste the good life

I'm gonna open wide, take a ride
An' taste the good life
