Dust on the coffee table, dishes in the sink
so much on my mind again, i couldn’t sleep a wink
Everybodies rushin’, busy to the bone
and there’s got to be a better way
short of leavin’ home, leavin’ home
I haul myself to work, just to make a dollar
reflection in the mirror, reminds me of my father
coffee by gallon, get me through the days
there’s got to be a better way
but i gotta make it pay, make it pay
I’m Goin’ To Tahiti,
me and my sweetie, got to get away,
I’m Goin’ To Tahiti , me and my sweetie
Throw all my cares away
For every step I take, I take another back
workin’ hard for nothin, it’s tough to stay on track
how I’ll figure out this mess, I don’t know what I’ll do
but there’s got to be a better way
I’m up for somethin’ now, somethin’ new
I’m Goin’ To Tahiti,
me and my sweetie, got to get away,
I’m Goin’ To Tahiti , me and my sweetie
Throw all my cares away
Everything I do, I do for someone else
my dreams get shoved aside, put upon a shelf
life is so damned crazy, couldn’t make this up
got to be a better way,
take me from this rut, from this rut
I’m Goin’ To Tahiti,
me and my sweetie, got to get away,
I’m Goin’ To Tahiti , me and my sweetie
Throw all my cares away
I’m Goin’ To Tahiti,
me and my sweetie, got to get away,
I’m Goin’ To Tahiti , me and my sweetie
Throw all my cares away
