Paradise
©2016 Robert Randall Burke

I've got a cat
Who plays the bongos
But he can't keep very good time
I got a whole case of Cuervos
But I ain't got any lime.


Got a monkey
Plays piano
He stays drunk all of the time
But he's a Union monkey
So I can't keep him in line.


And it's so hard
So hard
To keep this party goin'
Here in Paradise
So hard
So hard
So hard livin'
Here In Paradise.

Bob,

I love it!!! The arrangement is spectacular, the mix is spot on and your singing is the icing on a very fine cake. As I listened, images of Carmen Miranda and Harry Belafonte came to mind.

All in all, this is so very cleverly written and as with many of your lyrics, you show us all how to use words both economically and with bulls-eye accuracy.

I enjoyed it a great deal.

Regards,
Noel

Ah... they don't dance like Carmen no more...

But if your cat plays bongos, that's something!

Another amazing minimal-number-of-words-write.

Love the picture - that looks just like my cat - including the beer... he's here trying to type for me...

... and the monkey piano, too!

And the vocal, of course...

One of the very top songs this year for the forum.

We will continue to enjoy it as we just added it to our

Wish we were on our way to that club!

Stellar write, vocal and mix.

LOL! That's the best laugh I've had in a while Bob. What a well done comedy song that so skillfully poked a little fun.

But he's a Union monkey
So I can't keep him in line. ROFL!
