Morris' Nightmare 

By: Jimmy Buffett 

1978 

-- Spoken: 

"This is another new song we'd like to do for you now. It's a, tells the 

story of a lovely cruise ship couple. You know in November, the snowbirds 

start heading south down there, and you've seen them with the matching belt 

and shoes, condo commandos, you know. So uh, hey that's good shit. I smell 

it, alright, ooh. We better start this song before I get hungry. This is 

called 'Morris' Nightmare'." 



Down in the islands where the happy folks stay 

Everybody do what Bwana Jim say 

He say its ok, it's ok 



You can do what you wanna 

Do what you like 

Twist a big ol' number 

Ride a motorbike 

It's alright, It's alright 



Dance to the drum 

Drink a lot of rum 

Love till you come to a stop 



Swing like a monkey in a coconut tree 

Sing like the dolphins in the deep blue sea 

Sing it's alright, it's alright 



-- Spoken: 

"How does Fred Neil do it? Come on Jay Spell" 



You know people in the city got nowhere to go 

They used to go to bars now they go to Discos 

No, no, no disco (uh-uh, no) 



They never see the sun 

They hardly see the moon 

They barely see the ground 'til the snow melts in June 

Uptight, It's out of sight 



So they save a little money 

Take a little trip 

They only see the islands from a tacky cruise ship 



Buy a little liquor 

Buy some sea shells 

Husband tries to sleep 

Wife just yells 

Morris, you can sleep when you get home 



Down in the islands where the happy folks stay 

Everybody do what Biwana man say 

He say its ok, it's ok 



It's alright, it's alright 

Do what you wanna, do what you like 



-- Spoken: 

"Morris! Oh for Christ's sake Morris, you can sleep when you get home. This 

is supposed to be a vacation you know. We come all the way down to Miami. We 

could go someplace nice like SeaWorld. I would like to go see, Tony Orlando 

is playing in Miami Beach. We could do some nice things like that. But no, 

what do we do, we have to go down to this goddamn swamp. This is a swamp 

Morris. You call this an island? This is a resort? It's full of mosquitoes 

and bugs and just is terrible Morris. Are you listening to me?"
