Lyrics
Poolside in Paradise
Michael Carpenter
Well I’m poolside in paradise
With time on my hands and the beer on ice
Yes I’m poolside in paradise
Watching the world go by
Ever since I started running in the rat race I’m in
I’d take two steps forward take one back again
Every time it seems like I’m getting ahead
They come creepin’ up behind me
And kick me in the head
So now I’m poolside in paradise
With time on my hands and the beer on ice
Yes I’m poolside in paradise
Watching the world go by
I’m going to call in sick because I’m sick of work
There’s a drama going on and the boss is a jerk
I’m going to get one of those drinks with an umbrella in it
I’m going to lay around the pool and forget about it
So now I’m poolside in paradise
With time on my hands and the beer on ice
Yes I’m poolside in paradise
Watching the world go by
Watching the world go by
