Idea Comes And Me Wanna Go Home -- Hit by a Coconut?

My friend and Internet Marketing buddy, Rebecca, is building a brand new website on juicing. As she is about to leave for a planned vacation, I was urging her yesterday to go live with her site and start counting the money — as marketers, we are very much endeared to the term “Ka Ching” — rolling in.

We were texting each other and she said something about sipping coconut juice (yea, Reb’s holiday is really beckoning 😉 ) while her site “juices out money”. I chipped in with a tongue-in-cheek reply about her needing to wear a helmet sitting under a coconut tree. It was her response to this that gave me the idea for this song parody…

Rebecca’s reply went something like this: “… should a coconut drop on my head, it might give me some new ideas…” Reading that got my creative juices (hey, we are talking juicing here, right?) flowing — here’s the first verse of an unfinished song:

Note: This raw idea has now been fully developed into complete lyrics. Locate them further down…

Coconut drops on my head

You might have guessed it — this song is sung to the tune of “Day-O”, aka “The Banana Boat Song”, that traditional Jamaican mento folk song sung by Harry Belafonte. Have a listen of the original in the video below.
