Went on a cruise ship around the Caribbean
Island hopped for 21 days
Workin' out, swimmin' laps & all that healthy crap
Vitamins & protein drinks--I'm sober every day
But at night I suck down tropical drinks
Little umbrellas and all
No rum & cola, Michelob or a beer for me
Just a HUGE Mai-Tai and a Dacquiri
Hangover in paradise
Too many Mai-Tais: some aspirin'd be nice
My stomach is growlin'-I'm seasick all right
I've got a hangover in paradise!!!
Bars, pubs & halls don't thrill me at all
You drink the same shit again & again
Pretzels & beer is what they wanna hear
They serve a lousy Margarita at the Holiday Inn
A cruise is the place to be a disgrace
When I'm aboard all I do is drink
No shore excursions, sighseeing or buffets for me
Just a strong fruit drink with an umbrella, please!
Hangover in paradise
Too many Mai-Tais: I'm groggy alright
I should have stopped at 24 drinks last night
I've got a hangover in paradise

CHORUS:

Pineapple or mango or papaya
Coconut & rum is what I desire
Cold, tall & slushy is what I wanna see
Well good God almighty which fruit will it be?
Hangover in paradise
Too many Mai-Tais: I'm groggy alright
My head is spinnin': no toilet's in sight
I've got a hangover in paradise
Hangover in paradise
Don't get a hangover in paradise
Pineapple or mango or papaya
Coconut & rum is what I desire
Cold, tall & slushy is what I wanna see
Well good God almighty which fruit will it be?
