Upon the Island from which we come
we have a national characteristic which is very strong
Because we put the accent upon the
Wrong syllable and we sing
A tropical song
Upon the Island from which we come
The point of interest, beside the cocoanut and the sarong
Is that we put the accent upon the wrong syllable and we sing
A tropical song we could show the natural
Wonders of the scenery (to you)
We could show the native birds and perhaps give two or three (to you)
And describe the climate and also tell the elevation (to you)
We could very hastily introduce the population (to you)
We could show you the hotel and many of our fascinating places
We could take you to the bar where visitors may fall upon their faces
If we only had a track we could probably take you to the races
But we prefer (to acquaint you with the following interesting fact)
That on the island from which we come
we have a national characteristic which is very strong
And if you should remain here you will discover one peculiar thing
Before very long
That you have put the accent upon the wrong syllable and you sing
A tropical song
And so we say welcome (to you)
