Down at the shore there's a place where there's no one vacationing |
|
There's just the sound of the call of the wild overcoming the fear of the unknown |
|
And I've got something to help you understand |
|
Something waiting there beneath the sand |
|
My metal detector |
|
Is with me all of the time |
|
I'm the inspector over the mine |
|
Look past the volleyball (look past the ball) |
|
Look past the squawking gull (look past the gull) |
|
Ignore the mountain of discarded folderol |
|
'Cause I've got something to make you understand |
|
Something hidden there underneath the land |
|
My metal detector |
|
Is with me all of the time |
|
I'm the inspector over the mine |
|
Metal detector, watch it shine |
|
Every seashell has a story to tell if you're listening |
|
But underneath every shell there's a story as well if you've heard enough of the sea |
|
Then everything on the top will just suddenly stop seeming interesting |
|
So listen now to the sound of the things that are found underground |
|
Don't need no volleyball (don't need no volleyball) |
|
Don't need no squawking gull (don't need no squawking gull) |
|
Don't need to look at any bathing beauty doll (don't need to look at any doll) |
|
For I've got something to help you understand |
|
Something waiting there beneath the sand |
|
My metal detector |
|
Is with me all of the time |
|
I'm the inspector over the mine |
|
Look past the volleyball (look past the ball) |
|
Look past the squawking gull (look past the gull) |
|
Ignore the mountain of discarded falderal |
|
'Cause I've got something to make you understand |
|
Something hidden there underneath the land |
|
My metal detector |
|
Is with me all of the time |
|
I'm the inspector over the mine |
|
Metal detector, watch it shine |
|
Don't need no volleyball (don't need no volleyball) |
|
Don't need no squawking gull (don't need no squawking gull) |
|
Metal detector, all the time (metal detector all the time) |
