Cozumel

In the humid hotel in Cozumel

Barely aware they’re not doing too well

Down in the narrow street

Trying to beat the heat

What a heathen mess of burden to bear

And we want to go swimming but we don’t know where

Chicken fajita

Flour tortilla

Fairly aware of the flies and the flea

Up in the restaurant

All of these ghosts that haunt you

Aren’t even necessarily there

And you want to go swimming but you don’t know where

Hey Cozumel

What the hell?

It’s just as well you know

Say Cozumel

Can’t you tell I can’t let go

The days we never get back

Hey there sweetie in the sugar shack

I need you so

I need you so

In the humid hotel in Cozumel

Fairly aware I’m not doing too well

(back)
