| 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 |
