Here by the sea and sand
  Nothing ever goes as planned,
  I just couldn't face going home
  It was just a drag on my own.
  They finally threw me out
  My mother got drunk on stout,
  My dad couldn't stand on two feet,
  As he lectured about morality.
  Now I guess the families complete,
  With me hanging round on the street
  Or here on the beach.
  
  The girl I love
  Is a perfect dresser,
  Wears every fashion
  Gets it to the tee.
  Heavens above,
  I got to match her
  She knows just how
  She wants her man to be
  Leave it to me.
  
  My jacket's gonna be cut slim and checked
  Maybe a touch of seersucker with an open neck
  I ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neat
  I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet.
  
  I see her dancing
  Across the ballroom
  UV light making starshine
  Of her smile.
  I am the face,
  She has to know me,
  I'm dressed up better than anyone
  Within a mile.
  
  So how come the other tickets look much better?
  Without a penny to spend they dress to the letter.
  How come the girls come on oh so cool
  Yet when you meet 'em, every one's a fool?
  
  Come sleep on the beach
  Keep within my reach
  I just want to die with you near
  I'm feeling so high with you here.
  I'm wet and I'm cold
  But thank God I ain't old
  I should have split home at fifteen
  Why didn't I ever say what I mean?
  There's a story that the grass is so green,
  What did I see?
  Where have I been?
  
  Nothing is planned, by the sea and the sand
