Cockaigne \kah-KAYN\, noun:
An imaginary land of ease and luxury.


USAGE EXAMPLE: In 1972 Eddie  Money first wrote the song “Two Tickets to a Cockaigne.” Wisely, Money reworked the tune for 1977’s Eddie Money, changing the title to “Two Tickets to Paradise.” The rest, as they say, is rock and roll history.
