The Beach Songtext

von Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers

One Two Bang Bang Bang
Well the beach be one of the best things we got,
Cause it's not what you have on but what you not.
No more silly clothes for you,
No more shoes no necktie too,
And the beach be one of the best things we got.

Well now the beach be one of the best things there be,
Well the fashion show is there for you to see.
See whose bum you like the best,
See who's got a hairy chest,
And the beach be one of the best things there be.

OK, start up the car.

Rim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim,
We're going to the beach get started.

Rim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim,
We're going to the beach get started.

I say the beach be one of the best place to go,
I say the beach be one of the best things that I know.
Cruddy sugar lemonade, but I love people when they're on parade,
And the beach be one of the best things that I know.

Well start up the car.

Rim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim,
We're going to the beach get started.

Rim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim a nim,
We're going to the beach get started.

I said the beach be one of the best things we got,
Where it's not what you have on but what you not.
And I want that stink and I want that sweat,
In fact the beach be better than most things get.
In fact the beach be one of the best things we got.
Where it's not what you have on but what you have not.

Cruddy sugar lemonade, but I love people when they're on parade,
And the beach be one of the best things we got.
Where it's not what you have on, it's what you have not.
