 TASK 1. Listen to the song.

TASK 2. Listen to the song again

with lyrics.

I'm on an island, dirty dancing in the sun

So close to heaven but so far from everyone
Yeah, I've got treasures buried underneath the sand
But I'm still wishing for the love that I don't have
Mama told me, "Girl, smoke 'em if you got 'em"
Left my lighter back at home with all my problems
So I'm sitting here, wondering all day long
Am I stranded on an island?
Or have I landed in paradise?
Am I stranded on an island?
Or have I landed in paradise?

I can paint my toenails while I'm soaking up the sea

The only thing that's missing here is you and our TV
And I won't lie, it sure gets lonely here at night
But no one here needs nothing from me and it's kind of nice
Mama told me, "Girl, smoke 'em if you got 'em"
Left my lighter back at home with all my problems
So I'm sitting here, wondering all day long
Am I stranded on an island?
Or have I landed in paradise?
Am I stranded on an island?
I hear your voice like a song on the radio Or have I landed in paradise?
All day long 'cause, boy, I be missing ya
I hear your voice like a song on the radio, ah
I hear your voice like a song on the radio (paradise)
All day long 'cause, boy, I be missing ya
I hear your voice like a song on the radio, ah (paradise)
Am I stranded on an island?
Or have I landed in paradise?
Am I stranded on an island? (I hear
Am I stranded on an island?
your voice like a song on the radio)
Or have I landed in paradise?
(All day long 'cause, boy, I be
missing you)
Or have I landed in paradise? (I hear
your voice like a song on the radio,
ah)
