The Strokes – Hawaii lyrics

Whether you're in L. A.,
Sunny laid back L. A.
Whether you're in New York,
Comfort 'round your block.
Whether you're in the you. K.,
Where the sky is dark
And the grass is kinda green,
You know like Central Park.
Still my favorite place
In this whole wide world
Has got to be in the middle
Of the ocean floor.
I see you poking out of the ocean.
Paradise on Earth.
The 50th state - what?!
Hawaii.
I wanna live in somewhere different.
A nuclear distaster might be on our way.
But I don't care, I'm in the you. S. A.
Whether you're drunk or stoned
Or we're sober and old,
If I'm with you
I'm a happy man.
If you feel safe and cold
While you count your gold.
If your problem is you can't find
Your remote control.
Still my favorite person
In this whole wide world
Is the woman who can
Understand every word
And when she speaks to me
She makes me
See the whole world
As my favorite place
Hawaii.
We got it made
Yes, I know.
Can we go
By plane or boat.
Whether you take it slow
Or you let me go
Whether you tell me something
That I did not know
Whether you're neat and polite
Or you scream and fight
Whether you keep something from me
That I wouldn't like
Still my favorite attitude
In this world so far
Is the friendly spirit
Of an iron heart
Like the way folks are in
This most special place
I don't care what happens
I'm taking a plane to
Hawaii
Hawaii
Hawaii
Hawaii
Hawaii
Hawaii
Hawaii
Hawaii
Kauai or oahu
Molokai or lanai
Maui and the big guy,
A. K. A. Hawaii
Hawaii
Hawaii
Hawaii
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
All I want to do is something different
Oh let me in
Cut off from malaysia
Back in who knows when
Oh we got kinda lost
But my god what a place
I profess
Airforce jets
Cannot take
Away my soul
