Pecador Island

There's an island to the west Where our dreams lie and rest The people are nice The people are fine They'll feed your vice What's your's is mine This is Pecador Island, the land of fun Party all night, live fast, be done Snort the snow the villagers offer you It's free, it's fine, you don't owe a due It'll make you feel no pain, no cold It's taste is bittersweet, you won't grow old This is Pecador Island, the land of fun Party all night, live fast, be done Run your race here until your done Party all night, all day, have some fun The huka here is powerful and sweet They often call it the Verde Treat Just try it Can't you see One beautiful hit Will make you see Take it all in, don't cough it out You'll be flyin' high, I got no doubts The Verde Treat doesn't interest you? Then join the slakers, the solemn few They'll offer whiskey, gin, rum and coke They'll fill you up till you're a joke This is Pecador Island, the land of fun Party all night, live fast, be done If you can't recognize your face, you've won Party all night, all day, have some fun Pecador Island is a place to retreat When your life has won, when you're beat Forget the bad, remember the good Do what you want, don't do what you should The women here are frisky and fun Beautiful as the setting sun Take them to bed Go for a whirl Don't let them in your head Don't dream of these girls They'll love you as long as your rollin' it in They'll love you more if you offer them gin So get your glasses, fill their minds Bring 'em up, throw 'em down, just unwind You won't have to worry about 'em in the morning But protect yourself, boy, just a warning This is Pecador Island, the land of fun Party all night, live fast, be done Live your life like a loaded gun Party all night, all day, have some fun Pecador Island is a place to retreat When your life has won, when you're beat Forget the bad, remember the good Do what you want, don't do what you should The land of sinners, the land of love A place to fly away, to fly above To get away from the world around The only way to leave is in the ground This is Pecador Island
