Lyrics
island pop, island vibe, reggae pop, country hip-hop, happy, sunny, steelpan drums, mid-tempo, light bongos, margaritaville, vocal effects, echo, reverb, female backup vocals oohs and ahhs, extended steel drum solo outro with big wall of sound, layered strings, layered pad syths playing full chords, vocal choir oohs and ahhs, lead vocal ad-lib, strings playing counterpoint
Friends are gathered 'round the dock tonight
Speakers pumping out that island sound
Bar is open, blender's running wild
That last drink really knocked me around
We're on island time
If it's noon or midnight, here it's 5 o'clock all the time
Is it the waves in motion, or the blender's potion
All we know is, It's a tropical island paradise, on island time
Livin' easy underneath these golden rays
I got no plans tomorrow and no regrets
Old friends are new again as we laugh about the good ole days
And new friends are just old friends, we haven't met yet
We're on island time
If it's noon or midnight, here it's 5 o'clock all the time
Is it the waves in motion, or the blender's potion
All we know is, It's a tropical island paradise
On island time, yeah island time
And when the sun goes down, we're headed back to the shore
On the beach we see the fireside glow
And with the breeze in your hair, and good vibes in the air
This is how the good times roll
We're on island time
If it's noon or midnight, always a sunny day state of mind
Is it the waves in motion, or the blender's potion
All we know is, it's a tropical island paradise
On island time, yeah on island time
Where it's 5 o'clock all the time
