I'm feeling pretty down
There's rumors going round the town
There saying that you're going but you're saying that you're staying
And I don't know if you're gonna be around
When the trade winds come blowing
They blow away those who aren't settled down
They pick up the dust and when they blow too much
Even the strongest roots get pulled out of ground
Island fever
I'm a believer
That you can go far away
But there's still bills to pay
You'll find out it's no holiday
Island fever
I'm a believer
That you can go far away
But there's still bills to pay
You'll find out it's no holiday
Thought you landed a permanent vacation
Sipping mai tais with the sand between your toes
But when you're stuck in a rut and you can't make a buck
It's time to let the trades send you home
Island fever
I'm a believer
That you can go far away
But there's still bills to pay
You'll find out it's no holiday
Island fever
I'm a believer
That you can go far away
But there's still bills to pay
You'll find out it's no holiday
