Costarica
It's long ago since times of ease
Now I need a one way out
You can call me hero
If you please
But I'm not the kind of guy to fight
I'll settle down in Costa Rica
With dancing girls and mango trees
I'll never be miner or vicar
Work is for me a mortal disease
I don't want no carnival in Rio
To hell with blooming cherries in Japan
No wanna jam no Jah Jah in Jamaica
I'm just sick of all these drugs in Amsterdam
I'll settle down in Costa Rica
With dancing girls and mango trees
I'll never be miner or vicar
Work is for me a mortal disease
I know no mangos grow in Costa Rica
And dancing girls are fat and underpaid
The swamps are full of snakes and mean mosquitoes
But could you ever wish a better place to stay?
I'll settle down in Costa Rica
With dancing girls and mango trees
I'll never be miner or vicar
Work is for me a mortal disease
Work is for me a mortal disease
Work is for me a mortal disease
Now I need a one way out
You can call me hero
If you please
But I'm not the kind of guy to fight
I'll settle down in Costa Rica
With dancing girls and mango trees
I'll never be miner or vicar
Work is for me a mortal disease
I don't want no carnival in Rio
To hell with blooming cherries in Japan
No wanna jam no Jah Jah in Jamaica
I'm just sick of all these drugs in Amsterdam
I'll settle down in Costa Rica
With dancing girls and mango trees
I'll never be miner or vicar
Work is for me a mortal disease
I know no mangos grow in Costa Rica
And dancing girls are fat and underpaid
The swamps are full of snakes and mean mosquitoes
But could you ever wish a better place to stay?
I'll settle down in Costa Rica
With dancing girls and mango trees
I'll never be miner or vicar
Work is for me a mortal disease
Work is for me a mortal disease
Work is for me a mortal disease
