Cheeseburger in Paradise - Live

Tried to amend my carnivorous habit

Made it nearly 70 days

Losing weight without speed, eating sunflower seeds

Drinking lots of carrot juice and soaking up rays

But at night I'd have these wonderful dreams

Some kind of sensuous treat

Not zucchini fettucini or bulgur wheat

But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat

Cheeseburger in paradise

Heaven on Earth with an onion slice

Not too particular, not too precise

I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise

Heard about the oldtime sailor men

They'd eat the same thing again and again

Warm beer and bread, they said could raise the dead

Well, it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn

But times have changed for sailors these days

When I'm in port, I get what I need

Not just havanas or bananas or daiquiris

But that American creation on which I feed

Cheeseburger in paradise

Medium-rare with mustard'd be nice

Heaven on Earth with an onion slice

I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise

I like mine with lettuce and tomato

Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes

Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer

Well, good God almighty which way do I steer

For my

Cheeseburger in paradise

Making the best of every virtue and vice

Worth every damn bit of sacrifice

To get a cheeseburger in paradise

Get me a cheeseburger in paradise

I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise

I like mine with lettuce and tomato

Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes

Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer

Well, good God almighty which way do I steer?
