Lyrics for Off To See The Lizard by Jimmy Buffett:
| | | Artist: | Jimmy Buffett |
| | Album: | Off To See The Lizard | | Track: | Off To See The Lizard | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 58 | | | | Lyrics: | I was raised by a maid who came from Martinique
She wore geckos around her neck and bracelets
on her feet
A superstitious woman from the land of sugar cane
She'd sing the sun to bed
and dance out in the rain
Dance out, dance out, dance out in the rain
She'd excite
us with a legend that the Africans told
About a red iguanna who turned lava into gold
We'd
mount an expedition heading up into the bay
Superstitious children playing pirate for the
day
Chorus:
Off to see the lizard
Off to see the lizard
Deja deja deja
vu
Believe it and it will come true
Veja veja veja du
What works for me might work
for you
Being rich an famous seems to have its ups and downs
But that's the price
you pay for being troubadours and clowns
Godzilla's halitosis it be vaporizing cars
Elvis
up in Michigan or maybe out on Mars
Dance out, dance out, dance out to the stars
But
living in the briar patch ain't what it appears
Sooner or later you've got to face your
fears
I heard it from the parrot verbalizing in the tree
I heard in the songline of the
aborigine
Chorus:
Off to see the lizard
Off to see the lizard
Deja deja
deja vu
Believe it and it will come true
Veja veja veja du
What works for me might
work for you
Does it work for me? (yeah, yeah)
Will it work for you? (yeah,
yeah)
If you believe it will (yeah, yeah)
It will come true (yeah, yeah)
I got
problems with my brain underneath my curls
Problems with Loraine and all the other
girls
Love a wealthy woman and the pretty plane she flys
If you think this sounds
confusing you should see it through my eyes
Dancing, dancing, dancing through my
eyes
I'm turning off the waterfall the tourists can go home
I feel it time to travel
take time to write a poem
Time to seek some therapy I'm going walkabout
Answers are the
easy part, questions raise the doubt
Chorus:
Off to see the lizard
Off to see
the lizard
Deja deja deja vu
Believe it and it will come true
Veja veja veja
du
What works for me might work for you
Deja deja deja vu
Believe it and it
will come true
Veja veja veja du
What works for me will work for you | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
