[Verse]
TEuesday on the AislaEnd
BNot much goin' Eon
The parties are Aall Eover
They eBnded just past dEawn
EThe jungle drums are AbeaEting
BWith the tales from late last Enight
'Cause stories bear rAepeaEting
For eBveryone's delEight
[Chorus]
EYou can Ahear 'em on the coconut Etelegraph (telegraph)
Can't keep Bnothin' under their Ehat
You can Ahear 'em on the coconut Etelegraph (telegraph)
SayBin' who did dis and Edat
ADis and Edat, BDis and dEat
[Verse]
ENow I'm not one to deal in AgossEip
BBut was he that big a Efool
To do a belly-buster Ahigh Edive
And miBss the entire pEool
EAnd what became of sweet AMeliEssa
And the Bboy nobody Eknew
Did Ricardo ever Afind Eher
I swear it's Bjust between me and Eyou
[Chorus]
EBut you can Ahear it on the coconut Etelegraph (telegraph)
By now Beverybody Eknows
You can Ahear it on the coconut Etelegraph (telegraph)
JuBst who comes and Egoes
CAomes and Egoes, cBomes and Egoes
[Bridge]
LAa, Ela la la, Bla la la
ALa, Ela la la, Bla la la
ALa, Ela la la, (la la la la la la la)
ALa, Ela la la, (la la Bla la la la oooooh)
Ah!
[Verse]
EIt's hump day on the AislaEnd
The Blines have all gone Edead
All the juicy news is AhistEory
I guess Beverything's been Esaid
EBut when the eagle flies on AFriEday
And the Bboys break out the Erum
And the joint begins to AjumpEin'
And you'll Bhear those hot linesE hum
[Chorus]
Ah, Aput it on the coconut Etelegraph (telegraph)
All the Bcelebration and the Estress
Baby Aput it on the coconut Etelegraph (telegraph)
In Btwenty-five words or Eless
I want to Ahear it on the coconut Etelgraph (telegraph)
All the Bcelebration and the Estress
Baby Aput it on the coconut Etelegraph (telegraph)
In Btwenty-five words or Eless
DAis and Edat, BComes and Egoes
DAis and Edat, BComes and Egoes
