Jimmy Buffett - I Wish Lunch Could Last Forever (Off To See The Lizard)
I Wish Lunch Could Last Forever
By: Jimmy Buffett, Jay Oliver
1989
The place down the block, the one with no clock
Covert rendez-vous with you at the usual time
I savor the scent of the fish on the grill
Life's so spicy up on bar-b-q hill
Looking good, you look so fine
Waiter bring us one more bottle of wine
Chorus:
I wish lunch could last forever
Make the whole day on big afternoon
We'll begin with dessert a little coconut tart
Tastes as sweet as a piece of your heart
Cafe au lait beneath the Paris moon
Don't hide your eyes just wear your disguise
Brazil's in the air I swear it feels like Mardi Gras time
I savor the scent love that Annick Goutal
As we walk in time to the cathedral bells
Chorus:
I wish lunch could last forever
Make the whole day on big afternoon
We'll begin with dessert a little coconut tart
Tastes as sweet as a piece of your heart
Cafe au lait beneath the Paris moon
Oh yeah, Uh huh, Ooooh...
I wish love could last forever
Make the whole day a first time love affair
We'll begin with a kiss, such a warm place to start
Let me into your life let me into your heart
Mea culpa mea culpa carnival's in the air
We'll begin with a kiss, such a warm place to start
Let me into your life let me into your heart
I wish, I wish that lunch could last forever
Oh yeah, Uh huh, Oh, Oh...
-- Spoken:
"Tout la jour, mademoiselle [ Everyday, mademoiselle ]
Dejeuner tout la jour [ Lunch every day ]
Ah oui, une boutelle de vin blanc [ Ah yes, a bottle of white wine ]
Un dessert? C'est necessaire [ A dessert? It's necessary ... ]
Tres necessaire" [ ...very necessary ]

| Sorry, they are not related.
From FORTUNE 500:
As it turns out, Jimmy and Warren do have common ancestors, but you have to go back more than 10,000 years to find them. That's before surnames, folks. "Bottom line: We're not related," Warren wrote to his sister Doris, the family genealogist, who opened this whole can of worms many years ago.
Cheers. |

| Jimmy teamed up with his uncle Warren Buffett (I'll bet you didn't know that they were related) and co-wrote some extra verses:
Housing bubble pops, with credit default swaps, The G20 nations are all in a fuss
Credit dried up, when Lehman went bankrupt, laying the blame the're all looking at us. Now I'm... Wasted away again out here in Omaha, searchin for my lost 401K. Some people claim that the recession's to blame, but I know...
that it's the GOP's fault! |

| i havent been to a concert recently, but i guess now when he does this song he repeats "salt, salt, salt" with the crowd, like on his fenway album. i dont really like that version as much as this one. my favorite was one concert where he sang "broke my leg twice had to limp on back home, man i still feel pain, i wish i had cocaine, but thats been gone since early this morn" anyone else hear that version in concert? ah, the eighties, even i had a miami vice linen suit! |
