The Beach

[Verse 1] Velcro on your shoes and fallin' buildings in the news Packed lunches and backpacks and Adult Swim cartoons Twelve years, day in, day out Now the teacher's callin' your home Lookin' for some kind of way out But in school you're never alone You're never alone [Chorus] Race to the water on white sand Dog follows close at your heels Race to the water on white sand You feel at home at the beach Show your mother and father Show them how well you can swim Show your mother and father You're okay [Verse 2] Got your first phone and you're layin' up at night when it’s supposed to be off You feel you've grown but no one else seems to see it that way Shame and all the changes Waitin' for the day's end Video games and little escapes are all that tie you to your friends [Chorus] Race to the water on white sand Dog follows close at your heels Race to the water on white sand You feel at home at the beach Show your mother and father Show them how well you can swim Show your mother and father You're okay
