[Verse 1]
There he, sitting in the moonlight
Not found, living no city
He smile, mucho in a sunshine
Nightlife, counting de fruit bat

[Chorus]
Troppo, gone troppo, troppo
It's time you know I gone troppo

[Verse 2]
Plant me in de Helicona
No thank, meeting de peoples
Wake me, eat the papaya
Much hot, not much on the body

[Chorus]
Troppo, gone troppo, troppo
It's time you know I gone troppo

[Verse 3]
Warm sea, see right to the bottom
No like shoveling snowfall
Good time, drinking on me bottle
The high wide Moreton Bay Fig

[Chorus]
Troppo, gone troppo, troppo
It's time you know I gone troppo

[Verse 4]
Quite like you ain't seen a sunset
Could be living in Rain Hill?
Sun hot, you don't got a backache
Brown skin and very a peeling

[Chorus]
Troppo, gone troppo, troppo
It's time you know I gone troppo
Troppo, gone troppo, troppo
It's time you know I gone troppo

[Outro]
Gone troppo
Gone troppo
Gone troppo
Gone troppo
Gone troppo
Gone troppo

George Harrison

If George Harrison were merely remembered for his involvement in The Beatles, his legacy would be solidified as one of rock’s greatest names. Along with staging the world’s first benefit concert where major artists performed together for humanitarian relief, introducing pop culture to classical Indian music and gaining three #1 singles as a solo artist, he was also a film producer and an avid gardener.

In 1957, he met a young Paul McCartney on a bus they both took to school. McCartney then introduced him to John Lennon to audition for his skiffle group, the Quarrymen. Lennon originally rejected Harrison as he thought he was too young to be the band, having just turned 15. Harrison eventually impressed Lennon with his guitar skills and was accepted as a member of the group.

During his time with The Beatles, Harrison was the lead guitarist, one of the singers, and contributed many songs such as “Taxman,” “Within You Without You,” “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Here Comes the Sun” and “Something.”
