Parrotheads Make Yourselves Known!

[Hosnon]

I'm not a CD person and my computer was KIA. Luckily my sis has lots of Buffett on her computer and I'm enjoying the good stuff.

Favorite songs?

Mine: I know it's on SYKBH but I love "He Went to Paris"

1. because of Cheeseburger in Paradise

My love for parrots never connected to Buffet whom I saw walking with a macaw along a nearby beach.


Funny everyone that knows me swears I am a Parrothead, I didn't even know who Buffet was 'til I got into his neck of the woods. But don't go knocking people because of their diet, I say.

2. some of his older stuff are my favorites

Trying to reason with Hurricane Season
The wino and I know
Come Monday

and my personal favorite...Tin Cup Chalice...if there is a theme song to my life, that is it.

Amazingly, the wildest Buffett concert I ever attended was in Cincinnati of all places. I figured they are so sick of living in the midwest, they are all trying to live vicariously through Jimmy.

3. Ho Ho Ho & A Bottle Of Rhum

Santa’s stressed out as the holiday season draws near
He’s been doing the same job now going on two thousand years
He’s got pains in his brain and chimney scars cover his buns
He hates to admit it, but christmas is more work than fun
He needs a vacation from bad decorations and snow
Mr. claus has escape plans, a secret that only he knows
Beaches and palm trees appear night and day in his dreams
A break from his wife, his half frozen life
The elves and that damn reindeer team

Ho ho ho and a bottle of rhum
Santa’s run off to the caribbean
He thinks about boat drinks and fun in the sun
Ho ho ho and a bottle of rhum

Plastic creations and crass exploitations aren’t good
He wants to go back to simple toys made out of wood
Just for the weekend he’d like to be peter pan
Get out his long johns and dance with a sword in the sand

Chorus:
Ho ho ho and a bottle of rhum
Santa’s run off to the caribbean
Marimbas, calimbas, he’s playing steel drums
Ho ho ho and a bottle of rhum

(bridge)

Chorus:
Ho ho ho and a bottle of rhum
Santa’s run off to the caribbean
Marimbas, calimbas, he’s playing steel drums
Ho ho ho and a bottle of rhum

Ho ho ho and a bottle of rhum
Santa’s run off to the caribbean
A week in the tropics and he’ll be all right
Sporting a tan as he rides out of sight

4. Don't know if I qualify as a parrothead, but I really love

Jimmy.

At the very least, I've got a few parrot feathers in my headband.

5. I love him, but I don't think I'm a Parrothead.

Sounds too much like a cult. A Pirate Looks at Forty is probably my favorite.

6. My head hurts, my feet stink, and I don't love jesus

Did you know there is a parrothead radio station?
