In the chorus:

And the barmaid is ready to deal
Got those lemons and limes and coconuts
This barstool just won't let me go
And I'm surrounded by all of these bocanuts

A "trop-rock" singer-songwriter named Jim Morris did this song. He was very popular among
"Parrotheads" (Jimmy Buffett fans).
Sadly, he passed away from a sudden brain aneurysm last year. But his band (The Big Bamboo Band) carries on his legacy.
