Just Another Island Story
Verse 1
He said he robbed a bank when he was younger He served his time, twenty long years He had 10 million stashed in the Cayman's He's going to get it when the coast is clear He captivates tourists at the tiki bar But in the back of your mind, you think If this guy is a millionaire Why is he asking me to buy him a drink
Chorus It's just another island story Exaggerations taken too far Their yesterdays, told in so many ways They've forgotten who they really are When the memory gets a little too blurry It's just another island story
Verse 2 She said she was a real estate tycoon Brokered big deals for the mob She refills my coffee and tells me This is just my temporary job She's got about four or five million But it's tied up in properties She'll be back on her feet When the market turns around And it will, you just wait and see
Chorus It's just another island story Exaggerations taken too far Their yesterdays, told in so many ways They've forgotten who they really are Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com When the memory gets a little too blurry It's just another island story
Instrumental
Bridge Hemmingway, Jack London Robert Louis Stephenson Old sailors spinning their yarns It may seem very strange But time hasn't really changed They're only stories, what is the harm
Verse 3 He said he was a movie producer She said, that's not what you said yesterday He said, can you keep a secret I'm really undercover C.I.A. She said she use to be a centerfold Now she's got two Harvard Phd's He said, as long as I am undercover Who you are doesn't matter to me
Chorus It's just another island story Exaggerations taken too far Their yesterdays, told in so many ways They've forgotten who they really are When the memory gets a little too blurry It's just another island story Tag When the memory gets a little too blurry It's just another island story
