j.e.m.b.o.o. ( the Night of the Coconut Dance ) by
lacquered_mouse
Style: Troppo/Techno
there was once a little coconut
he sat in a little green palm tree
looking across the ocean.
beyond the white peaks of the stormy sea he saw
a little boat.
the boat floated up to the edge of his island
and he saw a little man climb out
the little man wore a grey beard and ragged clothes
he started to pick up sticks and rocks
from the beach.
the little coconut watched the little man
and saw him make a little hut from the sticks and rocks
once the night fell on the island
the little coconut saw the little man go inside
the little hut.
the little coconut watched the hut glow
with a light he had not seen for a long, long time
all the colours of the rainbow shone from the cracks of
the little hut
and from it came the sounds of
jemboo
the little coconut stood and called across the vast oceans
to all the other coconuts in the world.
from oceans far and near came all the little coconuts
from islands, reefs, continents across the seas
the little coconut beckoned them all.
that night, all the coconuts of the world joined in the
coconut dance
and the little man slept in his little hut
until the sun broke over the crystal waters
the island parted with its companions
and the little coconut
slept in his little green palm tree.
