We go down to the sunny beach
And all the girls yeah they’re out of reach
I´ve heard that they’re two to one so I keep keeping on
It’s not easy for a God like me
To know what everybody’s wanna be
I do my best and I know surf will set you free
And I’m skating down the boulevard
I’m waving to the cheering crowd
And all they need is love and some miracles now
Let there be sun (all summer long), let there be girls
Let there be surf, and everybody’s dancing to the...
Boogie rhythm to the surfing sound
And all the boys are still hanging round
To find a girl they like and-a-having fun
It’s not easy for a God like me
To know what everybody’s wanna be
I do my best and I know surf will set you free
And I’m skating down the boulevard
I’m waving to the cheering crowd
And all they need is love and some miracles now
Let there be sun, let there be girls
Let there be sea, and everybody’s dancing
Let there be waves, let there be beach
Let there be surf, and everybody’s dancing oh yeah
Ooooh wah
Let there be sun, let there be girls
Let there be sea, and everybody’s dancing
Let there be waves, let there be beach
Let there be boards
And now let there be surf
Let there be surf
Let there be surf
And everybody’s dancing to the
You and I are dancing to the
Everybody now – Let there be surf!

VALENTINE GIRL
I had no idea now, I thought someone made it up
Like it was a prank, like I thought this was gonna stop
But she kept insisting, I kept on resisting
Like it was existing, she was so persisting
And I fell in love, hope it’s gonna be this girl
Cause she’s my Valentine (gi-i-irl)
She’s my Valentine (gi-i-irl)
She’s my Valentine (gi-irl)
She’s the one
I am so in love now, she’s my little buttercup
Didn’t know that I’d be hanging in the surfer shop
But she kept insisting, I kept on resisting
Like it was existing, she was so persisting
And I fell in love, hope it’s gonna be this girl
Cause she’s my Valentine (gi-i-irl)
She’s my Valentine (gi-i-irl)
She’s my Valentine (gi-irl)
She’s the one

BEAUTIFUL BOY
Na na na...
Dancing in the moonlight, I was surfin through the night
Suddenly for once I felt alright
The breeze messed up my hair, I didn’t care about the air
But he’s gone, he’s goooone
Beautiful boy with his board by the beachside
He’s never too far from his home
Beautiful boy with his board by the beachside
You don’t have to surf on your own
The moon was shining pale, I could not have another ale
The sea and sand was welded to a sail
Skin like salt and cream, and I just fell into a dream
But he’s gone, yeah he’s goooone
Beautiful boy with his board by the beachside
He’s never too far from his home
Beautiful boy with his board by the beachside
You don’t have to surf on your own

HOLD MY HAND
Surfin away on a cold summer day
I would rather be home on the couch
I do this for you, to be cool schmoozeroo
But I don’t think it works very much
I can hear it in the water, I can feel it in the sand
But I can’t understand why you’re holding my hand
Is there something that I should have known
I can never explain why I like it to rain
I prefer to be here on my own, on my own
Surfin away on a cold summer day
Is there something you want me to know
Cause I don’t know why, don’t know when but it’s how
You continue to running the show
I can hear it in the water, I can feel it in the sand
But I can’t understand why you’re holding my hand
Is there something that I should have known
I can never explain why I like it to rain
I prefer to be here on my own, on my own

WENDY?
Ever since I went to school
I got things wrong, couldn’t play it cool
Cause I just can’t remember any name
I played around and I got away
With everything I just couldn’t say
That I felt every forename sound the same
And then I met this girl
The woman of my world
And now I try to find her in the herd
Wendy, Mandy, I can’t forget your name or could I
Sandy, Candy, it all just sounds the same in my old
Brain is not what I offer you
I’m sorry hoped that my love could do
As I walk on in life without a clue
But then I met this girl
The woman of my world
And now I try to find her in the herd
Wendy, Mandy, I can’t forget your name or could I
Sandy, Candy, it all just sounds the same and I try
Everytime you come around
I recall a different sound
Wendy, Mandy, I really should have written down your..
Wendy, Mandy, Sandy, Candy, Cindy, Windy, oh…
Lindy, Mindy, I can’t forget your name
Wendy, Mandy, I can’t forget your name or could I
Sandy, Candy, it all just sounds the same when I try
Everytime you come around
I recall a different sound
Wendy, Mandy, I really should have written down your name
Wendy, Mandy, Sandy, Candy
(I really should have written down your name)

BEACH QUEEN
You like to show the gremlins
Your moves and what you’re sellin
You like to get a look or two
But I’m not interested
Your efforts are all wasted
I have some other things to do
It’s not the size of the wave, it’s the motion of the ocean
The way you like to swing leaves me completely frozen
You try to make me yearning
Is this what I am earning
Don’t think that I will learn or do
Cause I’m not interested
Your efforts are all wasted
I have some other things to do
It’s not the size of the wave, it’s the motion of the ocean
The way you like to swing leaves me completely frozen
I remember I was just seventeen and you were the queen of the ocean
But you’ve changed and now it’s only a dream
You have to change your way and I miss all the motion
It’s not the size of the wave, it’s the motion of the ocean
YEAH!!!

VICTORY AT SEA
It was the morning a Friday, I loaded my board in my car
And I put on my wetsuit for once
Rob Berguss had told me we should do the surf
So we drove down to PB to meet all the curls
Now we know, yes we know,
We must go go go, we have to row row row
Off the shores of San Diego there is victory at sea
And we know know know, we have to go go go
From Del Mar down to Point Loma, there is victory at sea
We parked close to the beach and the bar personnel
Stood in awe, should have been more suspicious by then
Yet I threw myself in the water hey when,
Waves were way over ten, couldn’t even reach them,
And I know, I should have known,
We must go go go, we have to row row row
Off the shores of San Diego there is victory at sea
And we know know know, we have to go go go
From Del Mar down to Point Loma, there is victory at sea
So we went back to Rob’s house and had a few beers
when our friend Matt came in and he shouted in fear,
“you’re crazy you guys, an Australian tsunami is hitting our bay
and no gremmies should play”
Yes we know, and now we know,
We must go go go, we have to row row row
Off the shores of San Diego there is victory at sea
And we know know know, we have to go go go
From Del Mar down to Point Loma, there is victory at sea
Yes from Wind’n sea to Mission, there is victory at sea

THE NAGUAL
I’ve been through the desert, I’ve been through the storm
I’ve been down to hell, seen the devil you know
My wounds never heal, and the gargoyles are my friends
And we all now know how this story will end once again
So lock up your children and women in vain
Here comes the spell of the moon
Transforming again into the creature in pain
This always happens too late, too soon
Don’t pity me, I am only to blame
Too close to the blue immortality flame
I’ve been down to the desert, I’ve seen all the gore
While hell turns to ice my desire will rise from the floor
So lock up your children and women in vain
Here comes the spell of the moon
Transforming again into the creature in pain
This always happens too soon
Once upon a time I was human like you
Now I am under the doom
Here comes the feeling, you know what to do
Here comes the spell of a blood red moon

COME BACK
And I’m going through the motion
And I’m swimming through the ocean
And I’m coming back, I’m coming back to you
Thinking back on our happy years
A memory I’ll always cheer
I’m getting so, I know now what to do
Sitting drunk in an airport lounge
Dubai I think I am in now
I’m trying to, I’m dying to see you
And I’m using all the liquor I can find to make it through
And the only thing I care about is you
Cause I’m going through the motion
And I’m swimming through the ocean
And I’m coming back, I’m coming back to you
And I’m flying without caution
Cause I got this certain notion
And I’m coming back, I’m coming back to you
Been away for so very long
And I all I got is this silly song
I want to give you all I ever knew
Sitting drunk in an airport lounge
I think I am in Hong Kong now
I’m trying to, I’m dying to see you
And I’m using all the liquor I can find to make it through
And the only thing I care about is you
Cause I’m going through the motion
And I’m swimming through the ocean
And I’m coming back, I’m coming back to you
And I’m flying without caution
Cause I got this certain notion
And I’m coming back, I’m coming back to you
I’m coming back, coming back, coming back
I’m coming back, coming back, coming back
I’m coming back, coming back, coming back
I’m coming back, coming back, coming back

MORE COWBELL
Everybody’s dancing and having fun (o-o-o-o-oh)
We have waited long just to see the sun (o-o-o-o-oh)
No more cold and gray we will have a run (o-o-o-o-oh)
Cause we finally can go down to the ocean
And we’re waxing down our surfboards, you can tell
Yeah we finally can go down to the ocean
And all we really need is more cowbell
Bom-bom-bom

SURF DON’T WALK
No!
I don’t want to go
Cause the surf is slow
And I need the speed and all I want from
You
To maintain your cool
Or go back to school
Cause you’ll end up in cold water baby
I just want some fun in the sun
I don’t wanna walk, wanna run
Hey!
Remember in the day
When we used to sway
Or whatever you can read it in my
Book
Come and take a look
See you are the kook
And you’re deep down in cold water baby
I just want some fun in the sun
I don’t wanna walk, wanna run

OTHELLO
Bang bang that awful sound again
And I can’t get it off my brain
You said you’ll never leave me
Haha, I’m getting so much space
I change cause I can finally chase
Is this what fate had for me
Once I was young now I’m older much older
I can’t understand but it keeps getting colder
Every day
Bang bang that awful sound again
And I can’t get it off my brain
Is this the final chapter
Once I was young now I’m older much older
I can’t understand but it keeps getting colder baby

HAPPY HOLIDAY
Nat King Cole is roasting chestnuts on an open fire
The world is gray, I got the flu, I’m cold and oh so tired
But now the snow is falling down and I just say
Have a happy holiday
Hope the snow is gonna stay
I hear Santa’s on his way
And all the kids are cheering, it is early Christmas day
There are many times in life when everything is gloom
So hug a friend, let’s get together, make the world bloom
Cause now the snow is falling down and I just pray
Have a happy holiday
Hope the snow is gonna stay
I hear Santa’s on his way
And all the kids are cheering, cause it’s Christmas
And from us to you a happy holiday...
