Lying on a Beach |
Somebody introduced me |
To a member of the club |
I think that they confused me |
With some other rub-a-dub-a-dub |
Now, I work on the fifth floor |
And nothing is my fault |
I take advice like margueritas |
With a heavy grain of salt |
I always wake up in the night |
Wondering if I’m doing it right |
And if I had my way |
I’d be getting on this flight tonight |
And in the morning I’d be |
Lying on a beach in the sun |
Lying to my family and friends |
Telling them that I have begun |
Trying to find the means to an end |
Lying on a beach in the sun |
Lying just to cover my ass |
Lying in the sun on the beach |
Burning like the girls in the grass |
I should be working on my manners |
But I’m working on my website |
All you star-spangled scanners |
Trying to photocopy moonlight |
Staring at the computer screen |
Feeling so alone and obscene |
Getting restless |
Getting randy |
Getting mean |
Lying on a beach in the sun |
Looking for a little romance |
The temperature’s a hundred and one |
Everybody take off your pants |
Lying on a beach in the sun |
Trying to figure out what to do |
Lying in the sun on the beach |
I realized I did not have a clue |
I’m full of hocus pocus |
And I’m slower than molasses |
I’m coming in and out of focus |
Like a magic pair of glasses |
I go down to the staff room at lunchtime |
I’m like a joke but there’s never a punch line |
And if you step on my toes I’ll blow up just like a landmine |
Give me a reason I’ll be |
Lying on a beach in the sun |
Nobody but my money and me |
Is this your definition of fun |
I’m bored it’s only twenty past three (You should go for a swim) |
I’ll still be clinging to the company line |
There’s sharks out there I think I saw a fin |
Or maybe I’m just losing my mind |
Somebody take a memo |
We’re all on automatic |
When I get it back together |
We’re gonna need a little static |
Somebody check my pulse |
Slap me in the face |
Show me what I’m made of |
Get me out of this place |
It’s like a weird technological dream |
Watching buddies turn into machines |
We never get our hands dirty |
But paradise is never this clean |
Come on |
Lying on a beach in the sun |
Don’t want to get burned to a crisp |
You want something to remember me by |
You can save it on a floppy disk |
So long |
Farewell |
You can kiss my ass goodbye |
If I don’t jump ship right now |
I’ll never figure out how to fly |
