Tidal Wave (4-Track Demo)

[Verse 1]
Up in her room, she gets out of the sack, yeah
Goes down to the beach, ooh, and lies on her back
In the sunshine all day
What's the hurry?
Hurry

[Verse 2]
She dreams of long youth, no wrinkles or fat
No thoughts of bedpans, ooh, or deathbeds, and that
Keeps her smiling all day
What's the hurry?
Hurry

[Chorus 1]
An older woman suddenly cried, "The tide is rising!"
And all the guys with Speedos were first to their cars
But along with the rest, she slept
While the crest rose twenty feet and higher
Higher

[Verse 3]
The girl kept on dreaming of a honeymoon in France, my, my, my
A handsome fiancee, ooh, the way he could dance
He made good money, all right
A bright future
Future

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 2]
Even the guys with muscles cried, "The tide is rising!"
And all the folks with Porsches made it up to the cliffs
A group of kids were praying that I'm sure went up to heaven
But no one tried to surf
Surf

[Outro]
(La la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la)
It's a tidal wave
(La la la la la la la la la la)
It's a watery grave
(La la la la la la la la)
She really tried to swim
(La la la la la la la la la la)
She couldn't in the end
