Let`s Go Surfing


Rain is pouring down
In our land-locked town
Skies are always gray
Let`s go surfing, babe
Somewhere there is hope
Somewhere there are dreams
Far from soot and smoke
Let`s go surfing, babe

Tonight as we look at the moon and the stars
From our room with security bars
There`s a westerly wind that is blowing both our minds
And both our feet
Walk through sand that`s as white as the snow
Past the people named Kelley and Joe
Who have nothing in common with anyone we know
We know they`re

Too Wagnerian
Too Shakespearian
Too impossible
Let`s go surfing, babe
Somewhere there is hope
Far from everything
Far from misanthropes
Let`s go surfing, babe

Tonight, from a room only Dickens could love
Wearing moth-eaten sweaters and gloves
We will open the window and feel an on-shore wind
A-blowing in
Grab our boards from the back of our van
Paddle out `til we can`t see the sand
Spin around and drop into the wave we hope will never end

Somewhere there is hope
Somewhere there are dreams
Far from everything
Let`s go surfing, babe

Tonight, grab our boards from the back of our van
Paddle out `til we can`t see the sand
Spin around and drop into the wave we hope will never end

Catch a wave, a wave, a wave
Catch a wave, a wave, a wave

Somewhere there is hope
Somewhere there are dreams
Far from everything
Let`s go surfing, babe
