[Verse 1]
We wobble to the beach
'Cause life's really changing
Laugh about the blue and grey
What's it say, what's it not say?
I'm off to Tenerife
'Cause life's really changed me
I used to cry at home all night
Now I might in the sunshine

[Chorus]
Wait for the tide to appear
Sure does get lonely up here
Brushstrokes of saltwater, beer
Just falling over

[Verse 2]
What happened to the beach?
It looks like it's changing
We used to get to breathe the air
Now it's "Thanks, pass the gas tanks"
We lost the Jubilee
But not Easter Sunday
They're gunnin' for me, Jesus Christ
Winter strikes in mid-springtime
[Chorus]
Wait for the tide to appear
Sure does get lonely up here
Brushstrokes of saltwater, beer
Just falling over

[Verse 3]
We wobble to the beach
'Cause life's really changing
Laugh about the blue and grey
What's it say, what's it not say?
I'm off to Tenerife
'Cause life's really changed me
I used to cry at home all night
Now I might in the sunshine
