From the recording The Isle Of Coconutz
Vacation, Baby! It’s a weightless feeling like no other. We work hard. Pressure builds. The needle hits the red and we know it's time to stick a temporary bookmark in our lives if only to breathe. Life can carry some weight from time to time and before we buckle, we have to be wise enough to slide out from under our backpack of responsibilities and allow “living” to shine for a while! If you've ever experienced the Caribbean Islands in your free time… then you are smiling right about... NOW! "Ebery 'ting is irie, Mon!”

The Isle Of Coconutz music and lyrics JRRothrock 7/4/2001
Hey! When you come to the islands, be sure to leave your cares behind.
...And if the sun don’t get you smilin’, (ah, we’ve got something special…)
…we guarantee that you unwind.
All you need is a coconut. An island friend will "crop" the top.
Add just a pinch of sweet cane sugar… and most of all, the magic golden drops!
And if you swirl your body slowly… to gently mix the magic juice…
… in a few sips you’ll be smiling… a few sips more, and you’ll cut loose!
When the "rummy" in your tummy… soon the “happy” in your head!
Hey, you’ll find your toes a-tappin’! You just listen to what the doctor says!
Once you let your hair down then you truly can be free!
You’ll find yourself dancing with a stranger… and we are one big family!
No worries if you spill some… and feel the "sticky" on your feet.
Hey, as long as you are happy… then my day has been complete! Oh, yes!!!
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
So, you see, when you come to the islands… you got to let your spirit free.
Loosen up with a beautiful stranger… and let your life become "irie".
And if the night brings you a sweetheart… and you should steal away to your hut…
…we say the island "potion" has conceived two more "Island Coconutz"!
Oh, yes!!! Hah hah hah!
