La Isla Gilligan

By ‘The Iceman’

Sung to the tune of Madonna’s "La Isla Bonita"

Pardone, yo no hablo espanol~.
Last night I dreamt of the Minnow.
Five passengers set sail that day
from a tropic bay.

The weather started getting rough.
So they had to stay awhile
on that desert isle.

Living in those bamboo huts.
The first mate was such a klutz.
Mary Ann had great coconuts.
La Isla Gilligan.

And when the theme song plays
I think of those castaways
who wore the same clothes everyday
on that uncharted desert isle.

Gilligan fell out of his hammock.
He landed on the Skipper’s lap,
woke him from his nap.

Los Howell’s ‘tien a’(had) mucho dinero.
No phones, no lights, no motor cars,
just dumb guest stars.

Tropical the island nest.
Sending out an SOS
Take a look at Ginger’s hair.
La Isla Gilligan.

Cause when the theme song plays
I think of those castaways
who wore the same clothes everyday
on that uncharted desert isle.

I want to watch the reruns ‘til I die.
When it’s time for the credits their faces go by.
Gilligan, Skipper, The Millionaire and his wife.
The Movie Star, The Professor,
and Mary Ann.

So join us here each week my friend.
The best half-hour you’ll ever spend.
Cause you know they won’t get rescued again
from La Isla Gilligan.

And when the theme song plays
I think of those castaways
who wore the same clothes everyday
on that uncharted desert isle.

The radio warned them of typhoons.
Stuff washed up in the lagoon.
The reruns are on every afternoon.
La Isla Gilligan

Gilligan used to swab the decks.
Those headhunters had a voodoo hex.
Did the castaways ever have group
discussions?
