Cheeseburger In Paradise

Tried to amend my carnivorous habit Made it nearly 70 days Losing weight without speed, eating sunflower seeds Drinking lots of carrot juice and soaking up rays But at night I'd have these wonderful dreams Some kind of sensuous treat Not zucchini fettucini or bulgur wheat But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat Cheeseburger in paradise Heaven on Earth with an onion slice Not too particular, not too precise I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise Heard about the oldtime sailor men They'd eat the same thing again and again Warm beer and bread, they said could raise the dead Well, it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn But times have changed for sailors these days When I'm in port, I get what I need Not just havanas or bananas or daiquiris But that American creation on which I feed Cheeseburger in paradise Medium-rare with mustard'd be nice Heaven on Earth with an onion slice I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise I like mine with lettuce and tomato Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer Well, good God almighty which way do I steer For my Cheeseburger in paradise Making the best of every virtue and vice Worth every damn bit of sacrifice To get a cheeseburger in paradise Get me a cheeseburger in paradise I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise I like mine with lettuce and tomato Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer Well, good God almighty which way do I steer?
