Tried to amend my carnivorous habit
Made it nearly seventy days
Losin' weight without speed, eatin' sunflower seeds
Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' up rays
Night I'd have these wonderful dreams
Some kind of sensuous treat
Not Havanas or bananas or daiquiris
But that American creation on which I feed
Chorus:
Cheeseburger is paradise (paradise)
Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise)
Not too particular not too precise (paradise)
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise
Heard about the old time Taylor man
He eat the same thing again and again
Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead
Reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn
Times 've changed for sailors these days
When I'm in port I get what I need
Not Havanas or bananas or daiquiris
But that American creation on which I feed.
Chorus:
Cheeseburger is paradise (paradise)
Medium rare with mustard 'be nice (paradise)
Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise)
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise
I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 , French fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
Well good God Almighty which way do I steer
Chorus:
Cheeseburger in paradise (paradise)
Heaven on earth with an onion slice (paradise)
Worth every damn bit of sacrifice (paradise)
To get a cheeseburger in paradise
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise
To be a cheeseburger in paradise
