Songtexte Tropicali - Graeme Connors

Up on the coast north of the city
There's a nightclub right on the beach
You can dance there 'til the early hours
Never can tell who you might meet

Japanese tourist with a video camera
Wealthy Americans on holiday
Slightly sunburned European backpackers
Squeezing the last drop out of the day

Well, a pretty young barmaid with an eye to the main chance
Natural rhythm and a keen sense of fun
Invented a new dance called the Tropicale
The lambada and the chicken all rolled into one

And the Japanese tourist with a video camera
Wealthy Americans in board shorts and thongs
Slightly sunburned European backpackers
Dance the Tropicale all night long

Now that old nightclub north of the city
Has become famous all over the world
There's a Hollywood movie 'bout the Tropicale
And the main attraction is that clever little girl

And the Japanese tourist with a video camera
Wealthy Americans are getting on down
Slightly sunburned European backpackers
Dance the Tropicale in their hometown
