Verse 1
He said he robbed a bank when he was younger
He served his time, twenty long years
He had 10 million stashed in the Cayman's
He's going to get it when the coast is clear
He captivates tourists at the tiki bar
But in the back of your mind, you think
If this guy is a millionaire
Why is he asking me to buy him a drink
Chorus
It's just another island story
Exaggerations taken too far
Their yesterdays, told in so many ways
They've forgotten who they really are
When the memory gets a little too blurry
It's just another island story
Verse 2
She said she was a real estate tycoon
Brokered big deals for the mob
She refills my coffee and tells me
This is just my temporary job
She's got about four or five million
But it's tied up in properties
She'll be back on her feet
When the market turns around
And it will, you just wait and see
Chorus
It's just another island story
Exaggerations taken too far
Their yesterdays, told in so many ways
They've forgotten who they really are
When the memory gets a little too blurry
It's just another island story
Instrumental
Bridge
Hemmingway, Jack London
Robert Louis Stephenson
Old sailors spinning their yarns
It may seem very strange
But time hasn't really changed
They're only stories, what is the harm
Verse 3
He said he was a movie producer
She said, that's not what you said yesterday
He said, can you keep a secret
I'm really undercover C.I.A.
She said she use to be a centerfold
Now she's got two Harvard Phd's
He said, as long as I am undercover
Who you are doesn't matter to me
Chorus
It's just another island story
Exaggerations taken too far
Their yesterdays, told in so many ways
They've forgotten who they really are
When the memory gets a little too blurry
It's just another island story
When the memory gets a little too blurry
It's just another island story
