Coconut (song)
"Coconut" is a song written and first recorded by American singer-songwriter Harry Nilsson, released as the third single from his 1971 album, ''Nilsson Schmilsson''. It was the first composition that he performed to reach the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, peaking at #8, and later ranked by ''Billboard'' as the #66 song for 1972.〔Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 1972〕
In 1998, a cover version was released by Australian singer Dannii Minogue as a single, peaking at #62 on the ARIA singles chart.
==Lyrics==
The lyrics feature four characters (the narrator, the brother, the sister, and the doctor), three of whom (narrator, sister, and doctor) are sung in different voices by Nilsson. The song describes a story in which a boy and his sister concoct a beverage consisting of lime and coconut and drink it, causing the girl to suffer a severe stomachache. When the sister calls the doctor late at night, the doctor (annoyed at being awakened by such a complaint) laughs her off and recommends that she "put the lime in the coconut and drink 'em together"— the same concoction that caused the stomachache-then call him in the morning. There are no chord changes in the song: an arpeggiated C7th accompanies the song.
