The Lanzarote Song  © John Amo Doyle

Sick and tired of the wind and the rain,

Fine Fáil and Fine Gael,

Kids stuck inside, stuck in their phones,

Nothing on the TV, except for game of thrones, Oh Ya, Oh Ya.

So I bought a ticket to an island in the sun,

Stringed up guitar, I’m ready for some fun, Oh Ya, Oh Ya.

Got all my bits and pieces all in one bag,

Sunblock be gettin’ when I arrive, Oh Ya, Oh Ya.

Chorus

Singing bye bye Miss American pie,

Got a beer in my hand, not a cloud in the sky,

The cats in the cradle and the whole of the moon,

Let’s have another shot, let’s have another tune, Oh Ya, Oh Ya.

Just another night in Lanzarote, Oh Ya, repeat.

Pick a spot at the pool, outta the shade,

Kindle in hand, you feel you got it made, Oh Ya, Oh Ya.

Check the weather at home, making sure they got rain,

Time to send a picture, and make ‘em feel the pain, Oh Ya, Oh Ya.

Singing bye bye Miss American pie,

Got a beer in my hand, not a cloud in the sky,

The cats in the cradle and the whole of the moon,

Let’s have another shot, let’s have another tune, Oh Ya, Oh Ya.

Just another night in Lanzarote, Oh Ya, repeat.

Well Cardiac hill’s no friend of mine,

So I head down to the harbor, where everything is just fine, Oh Ya, Oh Ya

Jimmy Barry Murphy singing Fields of Athenry,

He’s got: Coach, Parda, Guchi, Fendi, Louis Vuitton,

Guaranteed fake watches, and the list goes on, Oh Ya, Oh Ya

Singing bye bye Miss American pie,

Got a beer in my hand, not a cloud in the sky,

The cats in the cradle and the whole of the moon,

Let’s have another shot, let’s have another tune, Oh Ya, Oh Ya.

Just another night in Lanzarote, Oh Ya, repeat.

So if you’re sick and tired of wind and the rain,

And all people do is just complain, Oh Ya, Oh No,

Book another flight to Lanzarote, Oh Ya, 

Just another night in Lanzarote, Oh Ya, repeat.
