“Escape (The Pifia Colada Song)" by: Rupert Holmes
Twas tired of my lady, we'd been together too long
Like a worn out recording of a favorite song
‘Sowhile she lay there sleepin’ I read the paper in bed
And in the personal columns, there was this letter Iread
Ifyou like pifta coladas and getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain
It you like making love at midnight in the dunes of the ca
Then I'm the love that you've looked for, write tome and escape
Ididn't think about my lady, | know that sounds kind of mean
But me and my old lady had fallen into the same old dull routine
Sol wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad
‘And though I'm nobody's poet. I thought it wasn't hatf bad
Yes, | ike pitta coladas and getting caught in the rain.
mot much into health food, | am into champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon and cut through allthis red tape
Ata bar called O'Malley's where we'll plan our escape
‘So | waited with high hopes and she walked in the place
i knew her smile in an instant, | knew the curve of her face
twas my own lovely lady and she said, "Aw, i's you"
Then we laughed for a moment and I said, “Inever knew"
That youthe pia coladas and gettin caughtin the rain
‘And the feel of the ocean and the taste of champagne
If you like making love at midnight in the dunes onthe cape
You're the lady I've looked for, come with me and escape
If you like pifia coladas and getting caught in the rain
Ityou're not into yoga, if you have half a brain
Ifyou like making love at midnight in the dunes on the cape
‘Then I'm the love that you've looked for, write tome and escape
Yes like pita coladas and getting caught in the rain
'mnot much into health food, | am into champagne maeenoee
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon and cut through all this red tape.
