Rupert Holmes Escape (The Pina Colada Song)

This is the song called, "Escape" aka "The Pina Colada Song", by Rupert Holmes

Verse 1
I was tired of my lady

We'd been together too long

Like a worn out recording

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:

Chorus
If you like pina coladas

And getting caught in the rain

If you're not into yoga

If you have half a brain

If you like making love at midnight

In the dunes on the cape

Then I'm in love that you've looked for

Write to me and escape

Verse 2
I didn't think about my lady

I know that sounds kind of mean

But me and my old lady

Had 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 thought it wasn't half bad:

Chorus 2
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'Malley's

Where we'll plan our escape
