It was hard enough to climb upon |
|
It was slow going at first |
|
Sister, you have laid long in the sun |
|
Aren't you dying of thirst ? |
|
Oh I see your suit is candy striped |
|
And your legs are long and slim |
|
If I whisper nothing's in your ear |
|
Will you pass them on to him ? |
|
You have laid here by the waterside |
|
Since the day we came to town |
|
Have you thought that you could waste away ? |
|
You don't care much for yourself |
|
There are circles deep beneath your eyes |
|
Why do you do this to yourself ? |
|
If you like, we two could take a ride |
|
I would love to take you down |
|
We could watch a blue heron in flight |
|
We could see the sights in town |
|
You have laid here by the waterside |
|
You have let the family down |
|
A cold and fruity drink awaits us both |
|
Watch me frolic in the sand |
|
O did you see me in the surf |
|
With a starfish in my hand ? |
|
Soon the restaurants will open up |
|
Soon the bars will light their lights |
|
You have aged, you must start looking up |
|
Ugly things will come tonight |
|
We could drive down to another beach |
|
Even tan your skin seems white |
|
All our friends have gone away from here |
|
So let's disappear from sight |
