Permanent Reminder of a Temporary Feelin — текст песни (Jimmy Buffett)

By: jimmy buffett



She was no marine back from the philippines

She was their pride and joy, their incarnation

Her parents viewed the chief with shock and disbelief

Looking for some other explanation



The indian on her back was poised for an attack

She said a tatoo is a badge of validation

But the truth of the matter is far more revealing

Its a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling



Permanent reminder

Of a temporary feeling

Amnesiac episodes that never go away

Its no complex momemto its not set of revealing

Just a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling



Vegas in the rain

Drunk on cheap champagne

He hears out of tune synthesized chapel bells painfully ringing

Wheres his limo ride

Whos this foreign bride

Is that really elvis spinning around the ceiling



Permanent reminder

Of a temporary feeling

Forgotten fabrications in the chapels of love

Whats this ring on his finger

Why is he kneeling

Shes just a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling



Chromosomes and genes

Spawn these fateful scenes

Evolution can be mean

Theres no dumbass vaccine

Blame your dna

Youre a victim of your fate

Its human nature to miscalculate



To make up for the fight

They go out for the night

Sex drugs and rock n roll seem like the easiest answer

But a short nine months later

Theres no way of concealing

That permanent reminder of a temporary feeling



Permanent reminder

Of a temporary feeling

Amnesiac episodes that never go away

Complex momentos not subtle revealings

Just a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling

Permanent reminder of a temporary feeling

Permanent reminder of a temporary feeling
