about

A trop rock song written by my good friend Travis Suit that is the epitome of Trop Rock escapism.

lyrics

I was sittin’ there, exhaust in the air
When this feelin’ came over me
Rush hour traffic in a concrete jungle
This can’t be my destiny

I drifted back to when I was young
No responsibilities
Those days in the sun and all of that fun
Down in the Florida Keys
Now I’m singin’

I’ve got a Keys disease
I want a piña colada and some swaying palm trees
Somebody teleport me please
Lord have mercy I’ve got a Keys disease

I was sittin’ there with that same old stare
Right at my computer screen
Same paper work and the same office cube
There’s no way this was my dream
So I Googled Key Largo
To find a picture of a better place
Days in the sun and all of that fun
Down in the Florida Keys
Now I’m singin’

I’ve got a Keys disease
I want a top down ride with some Marley cds
Somebody teleport me please
Lord have mercy I’ve got a Keys disease

Still sittin’ there convinced I had a pair
When my boss walked up behind me
He said, “Get back to work! I need that report.
It better be in by three!”
Well I spun around and gave him the finger
To hell with this company
I want days in the sun and all of that fun
Down in the Florida Keys
Now I’m singin’

I’ve got a Keys disease
Never goin’ back to a place that can freeze
If you know what I mean then sing it with me
I’ve got a Keys disease
I’ve got a Keys disease
Yeah, I’ve got a Keys disease
Down at the Yacht Pub we get in free
Oh, I’ve got a Keys disease
