Iced tea and palm trees
You could measure my level of relaxation in degrees
Cold drink, warm breeze, cool scenery
Cold drink, warm breeze, cool scenery
Iced tea and palm trees
The perfect combination when your tank is on “E”
Cold drink, warm breeze, cool scenery
Cold drink, warm breeze, cool scenery
Verse 1:
Feelings of elation, finally faced with a vacation
Free to escape from obligation, mind if I take some medication?
I'm just bastin' in Arnie P, sun in my face, come wave the palm leaves
Slowin' the pace, I might fall asleep under the shade of all these tall trees
I've been here, in a dream before, but I woke up like “ah man
That felt great, but I'm in need of more,”
I was not the same, I was all tan
But this is real and it feels so good
I would stay right here forever if I knew I could
This moment is precious, gotta show it my affection
Every time I'm in the direction of the west I get to recollectin'
Building these connections between memories
And present dreams, who I plan to be
And who I'm seen as currently
Meditating is so much better in this perfect heat
And I've got a perfect seat, perfect drink
Perfect company, and a perfect beat
I'm seeing life oh so perfectly
Who knew all I needed was to purchase tea
And perch in a tree

Verse 2:
Used to ride the bus to school and stare out the window
Early morning, gray skies
On my way to where dreams didn't go, I went though
And what I came back with every day was dissatisfaction
Gray walls and lack of passion, every day I came back home askin'
“How could this be all there is for me?
I need them to teach me how to literally make history
I need to be somewhere I can feel my freedom naturally
A place where I can live the dream without imagining,”
I feel that balance here like homeostasis
I'm at home in this oasis, it's oh so bright and oh so spacious
I Picked my Destiny despite my D's, I stayed Tenacious
Expanded west, Manifest Destiny, my heavenly
Destination, no anxiousness present, my worries fly away
Give thanks to God, this drink is a blessing and I'm alive today
I'm in the place where I can feel my freedom naturally
The place where I can live the dream without imagining

Bridge:
I've got a can of “Half & Half” and it's about half full
And if I look at life the same way then it's not that dull
Paradise is in the mind and it calls to my soul
Was paralyzed by time til I let Now unfold
