1. Escape (The Piña Colada Song)

I was tired of my lady
We'd been together too long
Like a worn-out record
of a favorite song
So while
she lay there sleeping
I read the paper in bed
And in the personal columns
There was this letter i read :

"If you like pina coladas
and getting caught in the rain
if you're not into yoga
if you have half of brain
if you'd like
making love at midnight
in the dunes of the cape
then I'd the love
that you've looked for
write to me and escape"I didn't think about my lady
I know that sounds kinda mean
but me and my old lady
have fallen into the same
old dull routine
So I wrote to the paper
took out a personal ad
and though I'm nobody's poet
I though
It wasn't half a bad :

"Yes I like pina coladas
and getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food
I am into champagne
I've got to meet you
by tomorrow noon
and cut through
all this red tape
At a bar called O'Malleys's
where we'll plan our escape."

So I waited with high hopes
and she walked in the place
I knew her smile in an instant
I knew the curve of her face
It was my own lovely lady
and she said : "Oh, it's you..."
then we laugh for a moment
And said...

"I never knew
that you like pina coladas
and getting caught in the rain
and the feel of the ocean
and the taste of champagne
If you'd like
making love at midnight
in the dunes of the cape
you're the lady
I've looked for
come with me and escape"

2. Him

Over by the window, there's a pack of cigarettes.
Not my brand you understand,
Sometimes the girl forgets
She forgets to hide them
I know who left those smokes behind
She'll say, oh, he's just a friend,
And I'll say, oh, I'm not blind
to..

(chorus)
Him him him, what's she gonna do about him?
She's gonna have to live without him,
It's him or it's me, me me,
No one gets to get it for free
It's me or it's him.

Don't know what he looks like,
Don't know who he is.
Don't know why she thought that I
would say what's mine is his.
I dont want to own her,
But I can't let her have it both ways.
Three is one too many of us,
She leaves with me or stays
with..

(chorus)

Him him him, what's she gonna do about Him?
She's gonna have to live without him,
It's him or it's me, me me,
No one gets to get it for free
It's me or it's him.

If she wants him she can have him,
Just exactly how we once were,
Its goodbye to he and I,
and back to me and her,
Without..

(chorus)
Him, him, him, what's she gonna do about him?
She's gonna have to live without him,
It's him or it's me, me, me,
No one gets to get it for free,
Time for me to make the girl see,
It's me or it's him.

(repeat chorus)
