Lyrics

Cold Coconuts I'm coming for ya
But first I've got a date in Addis Ababa
With a friend who's baking teff
He left the plains of Lubbock, Texas on a personal quest
So in the meantime repair the palapa fronds
And sharpen my machete
I'll be there as soon as this kid from
Grottaglie stops going on and on and on about the best foccacia in the world
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Cold Coconuts
(Drinking in the trenches treats us better than the hammocks)
I got you in my sights
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Cold Coconuts
(Cheers to the battles and the saddles that we ride on)
Just hold tight
So make sure the hammock is secure because the trade winds are coming in
and exchange our excess yucca for the neighbor's homemade rum
I'll be there in a minute, Cold Coconuts
I just gotta wrap the show up here
They're finishing lecturing me on the difference between this and that
And though I can't say I often agree
I'm currently enjoying wearing all these hats
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Cold Coconuts
(Drinking in the trenches treats us better than the hammocks)
I got you in my sights
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Cold Coconuts
(Cheers to the battles and the saddles that we ride on)
Just hold tight
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Cold Coconuts
(Drinking in the trenches treats us better than the hammocks)
I'm on my way
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Thing is, just not today
(Cheers to the battles and the saddles that we ride on)
Look I know there's a happy hour I'm missing in our land without clocks
But just give me a second cold coconuts
My friend's a contrarian who's nearly talked himself back to the table and hence we need to break bread in the food court in the grand bazaar before I go
Hold tight
Fill the cooler with ice and prepare the 'coming soon' sign
I'm getting there, but this friend just pulled me into a disco in Leipzig
and I'm unsure of how to make inroads with these girls who dress to impress
yet don't seem to want to be seen
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Cold Coconuts
(Drinking in the trenches treats us better than the hammocks)
I got you in my sights
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Cold Coconuts
(Cheers to the battles and the saddles that we ride on)
Just hold tight
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Cold Coconuts
(Drinking in the trenches treats us better than the hammocks)
I'm on my way
(Peacetime and yogis, our dreams are out of focus)
Thing is, just not today
(Cheers to the battles and the saddles that we ride on)
