I'm sittin on the beach Sand between my toes Underneath the palm trees Life is easy at it goes - repeat - You would think that I'm in heaven That I'm a lucky man But, you know, this is hell boy And don't you understand Why I say [Chorus] How I wish it was Christmas Instead of July I'm aching with sunburn Too much light in my eye I hate the daily hangovers Don't want to dance every night And the girls in bikinis How they fill me with fright So I say No coconut, no coconut but mistletoe (How I wish it was Christmas) No sand, no beach, no sun, no waves but only snow (How I wish it was Christmas) Coconut, no coconut (how i wish) Coconut, no coconut no coconut (how i wish) Christmas - Breakdown - I look silly in a swimsuit Too white and too fat When it's too hot to put your clothes on You just cannot hide that - repeat - And so suddenly the office Where a man can wear a suit And especially in winter It's surprisingly good, So I say How I wish it was Christmas Instead of July I'm aching with sunburn Too much light in my eye I hate the daily hangovers Don't want to dance every night And the girls in bikinis How they fill me with fright So I say No coconut, no coconut but mistletoe (How I wish it was Christmas) No sand, no beach, no sun, no waves but only snow (How I wish it was Christmas) Coconut, no coconut (how i wish) Coconut, no coconut no coconut (how i wish) Christmas No coconut, no coconut but mistletoe (How I wish it was Christmas) No sand, no beach, no sun, no waves but only snow (How I wish it was Christmas) Coconut, no coconut (how i wish) Coconut, no coconut no coconut (wish) Christmas

about

The Beach Balls did it again! They release their second single: Coconut, No Coconut (How I Wish It Was Christmas). A sunny song that sounds deceptively simple, but isn't. Again. They just wish it wasn't that time of year in a tongue in cheek way. Again. It sticks in your ears and brain. Again. They thoroughly enjoyed themselves making it. Again. Still it sounds totally different. Yeah, mon! Give it a listen and enjoy. The perfect musical company to anyone's summer.

Coconut, No Coconut by The Beach Balls was released on Pilota de Platja Records in June 2017.

about

The Beach Balls Dordrecht, Netherlands

Both members of The Beach Balls have been writing and making music for decades. They've just never done it together, before now. Although some say that them not working together was a brilliant idea and the universe wishes things had stayed that way, they both thoroughly enjoyed the cooperation and are actually quite satisfied with the result.
Music lovers beware: they might even do it again. ... more
