Lyrics
[intro]
Mama says we’re flyin’ where the water’s warm and sweet
A private little paradise, no shoes on my feet
[verse]
They got gates like castles, cameras that don’t blink
But everybody smiles at me before I even think
Silk shirts, gold watches, laughter in the air
They say I’m “special,” say they love my baby stare
[chorus]
Take me to the island, where the grown-ups play it cool
Where they whisper in the moonlight, breakin’ every rule
They can’t deny the magic, say it’s somethin’ they can’t avoid
Take me to the island—every king wants a little boy
[verse]
Champagne in the glasses, I got soda in my hand
They tell me I’m the lucky one, the star of their little plan
They say, “Don’t tell nobody,” like it’s just a secret game
But secrets feel heavy when they call you by your name
[bridge]
I hear the doors click, hear the ocean hush
Everybody’s friendly, but it’s got that kind of rush
If I’m the prize tonight, why do I feel so small?
Why do the lights look pretty when the shadows start to crawl?
[chorus]
Take me to the island, where the grown-ups play it cool
Where they whisper in the moonlight, breakin’ every rule
They can’t deny the magic, say it’s somethin’ they can’t avoid
Take me to the island—every king wants a little boy
[outro]
Warm sand, cold smiles, and a plane that waits to go
They say it’s just a party… but I’m learnin’ what they know
