Cheeseburger In Paradise
Cheeseburger in paradise
By: jimmy buffett
1978
Tried to amend my carnivorous habits
Made it nearly seventy days
Losin' weight without speed, eatin' sunflower seeds
Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' up rays
But at night i'd had these wonderful dreams
Some kind of sensuous treat
Not zuchinni, fettucini or bulghar wheat
But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat
Chorus:
Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise)
Not too particular not too precise (paradise)
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise
Heard about the old time sailor men
They eat the same thing again and again
Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead
Well it reminds me of the menu at a holiday inn
Times have changed for sailors these days
When i'm in port i get what i need
Not just havanas or bananas or daiquiris
But that american creation on which i feed
Chorus:
Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
Medium rare with mustard 'be nice (paradise)
Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise)
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise
I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
Well good god almighty which way do i steer for my
Chorus:
Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
Makin' the best of every virtue and vice (paradise)
Worth every damn bit of sacrifice (paradise)
To get a cheeseburger in paradise
To be a cheeseburger in paradise
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise
Coda:
I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
Well good god almighty which way do i steer for my

Ignorance Is Beautiful
She taught me two things,
‘Ignorance and Beautiful.'
One day, she told me,
'Let me tell you,
The meaning of Beautiful.
God is beautiful,
Nature is beautiful,
Life is beautiful,
Love is beautiful,
Care is beautiful,
Share is beautiful,
Understanding is beautiful,
Trust is beautiful,
Faith is beautiful,
Passion is beautiful,
Compassion is beautiful,
Air is beautiful,
Water is beautiful,
Earth is beautiful,
Fire is beautiful,
Energy is beautiful,
Here is beautiful,
There is beautiful,
Everywhere is beautiful,
Everyone is beautiful,
Everything is beautiful.'
I had to intervene,
'Looks the universe is beautiful,
But what is most beautiful? '
The reply comes full and straight,
'Ignorance is awesomely beautiful.'

Into The Divine
I think youre, oh, so beautiful
I think youre so kind
And I think I would miss you
If you disappear into the divine
And I think of an apple core
When you start thinking of god
And I know I would miss you
If you disappear into the divine
And I think youre so beautiful
Beautiful as the blackened space and stars
But all I see is a coreless seed
When you cry for a God whos not there
And I think youre so beautiful
And I see youre as the sun
That shines out through these galaxies
Shimmering and warm, ah
And I think youre so beautiful, oh, oh, oh, oh
And if theres one thing I believe at all
Its how much I would miss you
If you disappear into the divine
Its how much I would miss you
If you disappear into the divine
Its how much I would miss you
If you disappear into the divine
How much, how much
How much, how much
How much, how much
How much, how much, how, how much
If you disappear into the
How much, how much
(how much), hey, hey, hey, hey

How much

Objectified
All beautiful things meet their demise
Flowers in bloom surely will die
Frozen are the wings of the dead butterfly
Because all beautiful things meet their demise
All beautiful things meet their demise
Clouds of gray spoil the light of the skies
The ocean must fall in order to rise
Because all beautiful things meet their demise
All beautiful things meet their demise
I knew I was doomed when you first said, “Hi.”
Two ships in the night, we were bound to collide
Because all beautiful things meet their demise
All beautiful things meet their demise
Four months can pass in the blink of an eye
We lose ourselves without having to try
Because all beautiful things meet their demise
All beautiful things meet their demise
The simplest words become hard to define
You can’t see the truth when you cover your eyes
Because all beautiful things meet their demise
All beautiful things meet their demise
Your pay the price to take this ride
Slowly, you find that you’re living a lie
Because all beautiful things meet their demise
All beautiful things meet their demise
Pictures of us will fade over time
We become strangers in a world so wide
Because all beautiful things meet their demise
All beautiful things meet their demise
You’ll keep on searching for what you won’t find
You’ll lose your faith while I lose my mind
Because all beautiful things meet their demise
All beautiful things meet their demise
Sometimes your morals get left behind
It will be too late when you realize
Because all beautiful things meet their demise

The Little Things
You never send me flowers
Or ever buy me candy
You never bring me pretty things
When you come to see me
And you forgot my birthday
Oh I wish you could see
How I miss
The little things
That you dont do for me
You never say that I look nice
Or that youre proud of me
You overlook
The little things
That you should see
These little things are big enough to hurt
But too small to make me want to leave
But I do miss
The little things
That you dont do for me
Now how can I miss flowers
That never reach my door
How can I taste candy
Thats still at the candy store
These little things mean a lot to me
To you they may be silly
But I do miss
The little things
That you dont do for me
Yes I miss
The little things
That you dont do for me

Heavy Metal Drummer
I still miss those heavy metal bands
She used to go see on the landing in the summer
She fell in love with a drummer
She fell in love with the drummer
She fell in love
Shiny shiny pants and bleach blonde hair
A double kick drum by the river in the summer
She fell in love with a drummer
Another & another
She fell in love
I miss the innocence Ive known
Playing kiss covers
Beautiful & stoned
Unlock my body and move myself to dance
In long liquid flowing blowing glass
Classical music blasting
Thats still ringing in my ears
I still miss those heavy metal bands
She used to go see on the landing in the summer
She fell in love with a drummer
She fell in love with the drummer
She fell in love
I miss the innocence Ive known
Playing kiss covers
Beautiful & stoned
I miss the innocence Ive known
Playing kiss covers
Beautiful & stoned
Playing kiss covers
Beautiful & stoned
Playing kiss covers
Beautiful & stoned

It's A Beautiful Life
I wish my brain would operate instead of standing still.
It's all so complicated,
The thread of my own thoughts seems to be disappearing into what seems
to be a logical conclusion.
I guess I just ran out of ideas.
I've heard a million songs about this and that,
and they gave me satisfaction...
But I see,
It's a Beautiful life.
Now comes the second verse and I have to at least keep the measures
straight.
It's been a long time now and i'm really insecure about it all.
I guess I didn't like seeing all the things I saw, Who needs it?
It's been a little painful and I hope I don't like the pain,
Cause I'd hate to think of myself like that...
'Cause I see,
It's a Beautiful life.
I like the old things, But I just can't give up the idea
of trying something a little bit different,
Even if it's stupid...
'Cause I see,
It's a Beautiful life.
Yes, I see,
It's a Beautiful life.
And I see,
It's a Beautiful life

My Miss Beautiful
Beautiful is an underword to describe you,
Oh poor english, give me more words,
Dont envy me you lexicon,
I need words with virtue and weight,
Every lexicon I have opened,
Should I call her marvellous,
Well I am more than marvelling,
Should I call her beautiful,
She is not equal to others,
Since the lexicon cant give me more,
I will call her my miss beautiful
If beauty was a contest,
I bet she is winning,
Her smile, posture and eyes,
In others, I found it not
My miss beautiful,
Holding you in my arms,
Telling you, you are beautiful,
I denounce English,
She refused with words that suit you,
Stars are beautiful,
But you are not my star,
The rainbow is beautiful,
Yet you are not my rainbow,
You are far beyond that,
My miss beautiful

I Miss Me
The girl I used to be
Bright eyed and all smiles
The laughter and joy of being a child
I miss the trees
The peace and tranquillity
I miss me
Spontaneous and impulsive
The girl I used to be
Before they decided to trap me
High on love and life for HIM
I yearn for the understanding we had
The closeness we shared
I miss knowing what YOU might have paved for me
I miss being surrounded by YOUR love
Falling asleep with beautiful thoughts
And waking up each morning, with a smile
I miss me, the girl I used to be
I miss being alive
The fun I used to be

It's A Beautiful Life
You can do what you want
Just seize the day
What you're doing tomorrow's
Gonna come your way.
Don't you ever consider giving up,
You will find, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh.
I just wanna be here beside you
And stay until the break of dawn
Take a walk in the park
When you feel down.
There's so many things there
That's gonna lift you up
See the nature in bloom a laughing child
Such a dream, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh.
I just wanna be here beside you
I just wanna be here beside you
And stay until the break of dawn
You're looking for somewhere to belong.
You're standing all alone
For someone to guide you on your way
Now and forever
It's a beautiful life, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh
It's a beautiful life, oooh.
I just wanna be anybody
We're living in different ways
It's a beautiful life
I'm gonna take you to a place
I've never been before, o yeah
It's a beautiful life
I'm gonna take you in my arms
And fly away with you tonight
It's a beautiful life, oooh...

There's Always Tomorrow
Sometimes I feel so blue inside
So when I'm lonely
I drive to St. Tropez
I leave the world behind that's gray
Into sunshine
I know I'll be okay I say
Life is short
Too beautiful for you to worry
Don't give up
When love is unkind
There's always tomorrow
Don't let them bring you that down that way
The view is golden
Believe the old clich?
I need a little time to play
So kiss the moonlight
The night is young at heart they say
Life is short
Too beautiful for you to worry
Don't give up
When love is unkind
There's always tomorrow
Just let your imagination take a chance
It'll get you far
Step by step, the road is long
But at the end you can touch a star
I don't care where I came from
It's where I'm going that gets me through
It's all I need to get me through
There's always tomorrow
(spoken)
There's always tomorrow
(spoken)
Life is short
Too beautiful for you to worry
Don't give up
When love is unkind

Miss Me but let me go
When I finally come to the end of my road
T|he stars set for me
I want no gloom filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?
My soul was burdened.
And my life was my prison.
Miss me a little, but not for long
And not with your head bowed low
Remember the love that once we shared
This was somethinG I had to do.
I needed to be free.
Miss me, but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take each must go alone.
I had to end my pain.
So my life I did now take.
A step on the road to home where at last life dont nother me.
Sing no sad songs for me.
Laugh at all the things we used to do
Miss me, but let me go
|so when im gone miss me yes.
Cry for me no.
I am free now at last my soul is at peace.
So miss me but let me go
This was not written by me but it sums up a lot in my life

things beautiful
some things,
beautiful things like
blooms of booms
flumes of flames in fumes
things beautiful, of all
things beautiful, so beautiful
so near, yet
so untouched, you look around
for things so beautiful
bloomings of boomings boozing

lovingly loving love loved
lastly this lust asking: love do you still love me?

I Miss You
We had fire
As well as passion
The love we had together
No one could ever dream it up
Or imagine
The things that we used to do
I so miss you
No one can understand me
The way I think
How I see things
Together you and me
We were unique
Almost taboo
I miss you
We had differences
But they were ones that united us
We embraced them
As well as treasured them
I miss ever moment
That we had together
We liked the same
Music, art, books, foods, tattoos
Man I really miss you
No one compares to you
You are a package
That is complete
You were my friend, my everything
And most of the one I truly loved
Every word that I say is so very true
I miss you! ! ! ! ! !

Beautiful Days
Beautiful days in precious space.
It breaks the tiredness of my malaise.
Clears my head to navigate the maze.
Of my life and endless days.
The sun shines forth.
It brings me warmth.
In my soul I feel the hope.
Knowing that I'll beat the dopes.
Who dash my dreams,
and try to hang me with shortened rope.
With them I won't bother life's too short.
A beautiful day in Julys' great play.
The breeze is blowing my fears away.
I see the pond and hope is strong.
The beauty here is deep and long.
In my heart I sing a song.
It helps me know I'll defeat the wrong.
Dogs are barking and birds are singing.
The things I need Gods sweetly bringing.
To his love I'm strongly clinging.
Beautiful days are brightly ringing.
They give our souls a needed cleaning.
To get things right with no impeding.
From outside with things that have no reasoning.
Beautiful days stop the bleeding.
Enjoy them now and take his greeting

Double Life
Written by james young
Lead vocals by james young
In the dark so all alone
Slowly reach for the telephone
A message waits just for you
A secret place, another rendezvous
Its not always honesty
That is the best policy
But little lies can give you away
Though youll deny it if they say maybe youre just
Leading a double life
Friends in the daytime, strangers at night
Leading a double life
Can it be wrong when you know that its right?
The other side of the berlin wall is
Not far enough to avoid the call
Somebody knows, somebodys seen
Somebody knows right where youve been
And that youre just
Leading a double life
Friends in the daytime, strangers at night
Leading a double life
Can it be wrong when you know that its right?
Nowhere to hide, though we both might try
Im schizophrenic, and so am i
Double life, a double life, a masquerade
You know we all live a masquerade
I know youre out there!
Leading a double life
Friends in the daytime, strangers at night
Leading a double life
Can it be wrong when you know that its right?

Miss That Girl
(kenny mims/jeff pennig)
(track 2 - time 3:00)
Cold gray dawn, steel blue day sunset rust tonight
Its the same old picture to a love struck man
Whos suddenly seen the light
And I miss that girl
Yeah I miss that girl
I guess I moved too slow and thought too fast
And lost what might have been
Now I face the pain of a wounded heart
Dyin to try again
But I missed my chance and now shes gone
Lifes too short and the odds too long to miss that girl
Well I miss that kiss and I miss that smile
A miss like this is a million miles
And I miss that girl
Yeah I miss that girl
Sometimes I hear that voice and see those eyes
And I remember when those arms were open wide
Its like I missed the phone by half a ring
I missed the point of this whole dang thing
And I miss that girl
Yeah I miss that kiss and I miss that smile
A miss like this is a million miles
And I miss that girl
Oh I miss that girl
Yeah I miss that kiss and I miss that smile
A miss like this is a million miles
And I miss that girl
Oh I miss that girl
Oh I miss that girl

I miss the love raidiating from you
