Ticket To The Tropics Lyrics by Cristina

Sleep It Off

1984

You said
Do you know that little bar
With the Latin Rhythm King?
You said
Do you know that little bar
Where they make the great gin slings?
You said
We can walk it's not that far
And the night will give us wings
And you were cute, real cute
You did these sexy things with your down-turned eyes
And you went deep, real deep
I said, "My God, the way I feel tonight..."
All you wanted was a ticket to the tropics
All you wanted was a ticket to the tropics
All you wanted was a ticket to a tropic zone
I should have known
You said
Wouldn't it be very hot
If we did this in the sun?
You said
And my cashflow's kinda low
But you know it can be done
You said
I'll supply the loving touch, girl
If you provide the funds
And you were smooth, too smooth
On the windy street, as you grabbed my hand
You said
Do it right, let me handle you in the warm, wet sand
All you wanted was a ticket to the tropics
All you wanted was a ticket to the tropics
All you wanted was a ticket to a tropic zone
I should have known
You said
London in the winter's a drag
Don't be a slag, let's go!
And you were sweet, real sweet
You told the most appealing kind of lies
And you went deep, real deep
But you never really got inside...
All you wanted was a ticket to the tropics
All you wanted was a ticket to the tropics
All you wanted was a ticket to a tropic zone
I should have known
All you wanted was a ticket to the tropics
All you wanted was a ticket to the tropics
All you wanted was a ticket to a tropic zone
I should have known
