It's the Monday morning earworm!
I love doing this... :D

I was tired of my lady
We'd been together too long
Like a worn-out recording
Of a favorite song
So while she lay there sleeping
I read the paper in bed
And in the personal columns
There was this letter I read

"If you like Pina Coladas
And getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga
If you have half a brain
If you'd like making love at midnight
In the dunes on the Cape
Then I'm the love that you've looked for
Write to me and escape."
I didn't think about my lady
I know that sounds kind of mean
But me and my old lady
Have fallen into the same dull routine
So I wrote to the paper
Took out a personal ad
And though I'm nobody's poet
I thought it wasn't half bad

"Yes I like Pina Coladas
And getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food
I am into champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon
And cut through all this red-tape
At a bar called O'Malley's
Where we'll plan our escape."
,
So I waited with high hopes
And she walked in the place
I knew her smile in an instant
I knew the curve of her face
It was my own lovely lady
And she said, "Oh it's you."
Then we laughed for a moment
And I said, "I never knew."

That you like Pina Coladas
Getting caught in the rain
And the feel of the ocean
And the taste of champagne
If you'd like making love at midnight
In the dunes of the Cape

You're the lady I've looked for
Come with me and escape

(repeat chorus twice and fade out)

3. Why do I click on these things?
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Not to mention that song reminds me of my "awkward" years (age 13-14 -- hoo boy).

My earworm du jour previous to this travesty was "Lay Lady Lay" which I heard on the radio this morning. I was likin' that one. It had replaced the "Speed Racer" theme of last night.

4. Hee hee!
It was an ok song the first dozen or so times it was played on AM "top 40" stations.

Then we got sick of it real fast.
