Evissia

They say that on Ibiza you can travel into the harbor riding on a good or indifferent wave and depending on the choice its made the Island can welcome you with open arms or four years later send you on your way They say that on Ibiza you can tocar la magia and all your worries will be swept away it’s a place for spiritual hippies smoking weed and healing kundalinis and the island has a dreamy sense of space They say that on Ibiza you can party till you drop so long as you have the rave-with-all and the drugs they’ll never stop so long as you have the money with ya it’s a poseures paradise of frenetic sexual cornucopia They say that on Ibiza there’s a place out in the country inbetween all the fences, gates and walls and cages you can find a little peace there but don’t ever try to stay there ‘cause the police will move you on when they get the call Something they always say on Ibiza is viva el turista while empting your pockets of all your hard earned cash and everyone is climbing one upon one anothers back looking for some way to screw you over on the tiny island of coppyright reserved They say that on Ibiza you can spend a fortune on just one night in Pacha good time chamagne can cost you all have and the poor girls on the street always have to make the two loose ends of the cost of living meet They say that on Ibiza there is a whispered rumour of where the popstars and the actors go to spend a quiet time sharing their tabels with pimps and criminals while they complain about overly expensive wine They say that on Ibiza the fortunes of many have come to rest but like a garrapata sucks the fortue from those who have nothing left and so many cling to the illusion to which they have been sold never seeing that Evissia really has no soul And there on the island of Ibiza you will try to make your way but you’ll end up used up spat out anyway everyone is struggling to make it through the winter until it’s time to praise viva el turista eats their hollow souls away these are the empty people who always choose to stay
