Silly Love Song of the Day

I was tired of my lady, we’ve been together too long.

Like a worn-out recording of a favorite song.

So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed.

And in the personal columns, there was this letter I read.

If you like pina coladas getting caught in the rain,

If you not into yoga, if you have half a brain.

If you like making love at midnight in the dune of a cape.

Then I’m the love that you’ve looked for.

Write to me and escape.

I didn’t think about my lady.

I know that sounds kind of mean.

But me and my old lady had fallen into this same old dull routine.

So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad.

And though I wasn’t no body’s poet,

I thought it wasn’t half bad.

Yes, I like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain.

I’m not much into health food. I am into champagne.

I got to meet you by tomorrow noon and cut through all this red tape.

At the bar called O’mally’s, where we’ll plan our escape.

So I waited with high hope, then she walked in the place.

I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face.

It was my own lovely lady, and she said, “Oh, it’s you.”

And we laughed for a moment, and I said, “I never knew,”

That you like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain,

And the feel of the ocean, and the taste of champagne.

If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.

You’re the lady I’ve looked for, come with me and escape.

If you like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain.

If you’re not into yoga and you have half a brain.

If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape,

Then I’m the love you’ve looked for, write to me, and escape.

Yes, I like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain.

I’m not much into health food, I am into champagne.

I have got to meet you by tomorrow noon, and cut through all this red tape.
