Coconuts
I take it easy on a sunny day as I'm rolling down the street
I'm missing work like i've done for days but I'll get tan on my cheek
I've got no money I'm a bum in the sun, it fits my philosophy
Everybody improvise, Lifes a party in disguise
So let it go, let it go and take a chance
Big adventure calls, yeah and it's easy to handle it
All you need is big balls, coconuts baby
Big adventure calls, Hell yeah this shit is bananas
All you need is...
There aint a person that can tell me no,
I live exactly as I please
I got respect for every boy and girl
and none for authority
I don't practice what I preach
caus' I, I master being me
Ain't it great how life is grand
Every day is larger than jumbo
I like it jumbo baby
So let it go, let it go and take a chance.
Big adventure calls, and it's easy to handle it
All you need is big balls, coconuts baby
Big adventure calls, Hell yeah this shit is bananas
All you need is coconuts baby, coconuts!
Woah!

You gotta put a leesh on that elephant man
woah

woah!
Ain't it great how life is grand
Every day is larger than jumbo
woah
I'm improvising man I got no time to do anything else
And take a chance
Big adventure calls, and it's easy to handle it
All you need is big balls, coconuts baby
Big adventure calls, Hell yeah this shit is bananas
All you need is...
Big adventure calls
All you need is big balls, coconuts baby
Big adventure calls
All you need is coconuts baby, coconuts!
Big adventure calls, hell yeah this shit is bananas
