Enjoy It While You Can

"Enjoy It While You Can" is a song sung by cruise entertainment director Rowan Priddis at the halfway point of the cruise. He was backed by Gary Ocean and the Motion.

Lyrics

 * Enjoy it while you can,
 * Ice sculptures, conga lines and working on your tan.
 * Enjoy it while you're here,
 * One week of glitz and glam instead of pain and fear.
 * In just a few days' time this boat pulls into dock,
 * And when it does you lovely people may be in for a shock.
 * Here you've made exciting friends, back home you'll all lose touch.
 * Here Hawaiian shirts are cool, back home, well not so much.
 * Back home you'll be too tired for making magic in the sack.
 * So eat buffet, and play and pray there's some delay on our way back.
 * Enjoy it while you can,
 * Here at sea we drink and frolic, back home that's called alcoholic,
 * Your futures are but parabolic
 * Enjoy it while you can!

Behind the Laughter
The song's composer, Bobby Lopez, was given lyrics by The Simpsons writers, which he then tweaked and produced with a synthesizer band in New York. He opted to go for something "cheesy that actually could be performed on a cruise ship. We went in a Carnival Cruise, 'Feelin' Hot Hot Hot' direction." Steve Coogan recorded his vocals in New York. It was then sent to Chris Ledesma and Alf Clausen, who added a orchestral arrangement.
