Текст песни Island Christmas - Michael Franks

I don't want to smell those chestnuts roasting on an open fire
I can peel you a banana, if your heart desires
I want an island Christmas this year
I need an island Christmas this year
I want no more Christmas Carols counting birds up in pear trees
I want you to smear some sunscreen, all over me
I want an island Christmas this year
I need an island Christmas this year
Pack that see-through summer dress, you wore last summer
Just let me, kidnap you
Underneath the coco palms on Christmas morn
So slowly, I'll unwrap you
Pack that see-through summer dress, you wore last summer
Just let me, kidnap you
Underneath the coco palms on Christmas morn
So slowly, I'll unwrap you
Let's call up and buy those tickets
Quality not quantity
'Cause the greatest gift we have to give is you and me
We need an island Christmas this year
Let's have an island Christmas this year
We'll decorate a mango tree
And you can string some lights on me
No snow to shovel Christmas Day
We'll snorkle through a turquoise bay
While others plod through Jingle Bells
We'll roam the beach, collecting shells
I understand flannel pajamas
Are not allowed in the Bahamas
Handel's Messiah is far too long,
A repertoire for the steel drum
