[Verse]
G A D Tried to amend my carnivorous habits G A D Made it nearly seventy days G A D Losin' weight without speed, eatin' sunflower seeds E A Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' up rays G A D But at night I'd have these wonderful dreams G A Bm Some kind of sensuous treat G D G D Not zucchini, fettucini or bulgar wheat G D A D But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat
[Chorus]
G A D Cheeseburger in paradise G A D Heaven on Earth with an onion slice G A D Not too particular, not too precise G D A D I'm just a Cheeseburger in paradise

[Verse]
G A D Heard about the old time sailor men G A D They eat the same thing again and again G A D Warm beer and bread they said could raise the dead E A Well it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn G A D But times have changed for sailors these days, G A Bm When I'm in port I get what I need G D G D Not just Havanas or bananas or daiquiris G D A D But that American creation on which I feed
[Chorus]
G A D Cheeseburger in Paradise G A D Medium rare with mustard be nice G A D Heaven on Earth with an onion slice G D A D I'm just a Cheeseburger in Paradise
