about

Inspired by the ice storm during Christmas of 2013 in the Saint John, N.B. area and all the power outages it caused, some folks without power for two weeks. Let's just say it was a memorable Christmas! And I'll add that folks in Toronto had a very similar experience around that same time.

lyrics

I'm going to the Caribbean
I'm going to the land of sun
Gonna stop my shivering
Gonna have me some fun

I'm gonna smoke cigars
I'm gonna drink some rum
Gonna stroll along the beach
To the beat of my own drum

I'm going to the Caribbean
I'm going to the land of sun
Gonna stop my shivering
Gonna have me some fun

There's ice on the powerlines
Along the snow packed streets
I'm bundled up so thick
I'm a frozen mummy freak

I'm going to the Caribbean
I'm going to the land of sun
Gonna stop my shivering
Gonna have me some fun

Can't feel my hands
Can't feel my nose
And don't talk about my feet
And in the morning
When I rise
I haven't got no heat

I'm going to the Caribbean
I'm going to the land of sun
Gonna stop my shivering
Gonna have me some fun

I'm pale as a ghost
Look what Mother Nature done
A week without no power
Has got me on the run

I'm going to the Caribbean
I'm going to the land of sun
Gonna stop my shivering
Yeah I'm going to have some fun

The days are short
The nights are long
And my nose keeps on running
I've tried to ski
I've tried to skate
I just need some sunning

I gotta get away
Gotta book a cruise
Gotta find some sun
Tired of living in igloos
Give me some relief please
