Every summer, it’s always the same
You sit around thinking life is so lame
It’s just a matter of time, before you beseech
A few of your friends to go to the beach
The beach they say is they place to unwind
So leave all your cares and your worries behind
Pack up the car, let the radio groove
And prepare for twenty miles of cars that don’t move
Oh, take me to the beach
Where all the pretty women are just out of reach
How could I have a worry or a care
With all those pretty ladies in just their underwear
Get to the beach, but first you must park
For just fifty dollars, you stay until dark
Then make your way to the sandy-hot sand
But good luck finding a square inch of land
You try to sit down, but you can’t find a spot
Next to a woman who’s sexy and hot
The only place left to settle down
Is next to a grandma of 300 pounds
Yet out in the sun, I almost feel one
With nature and the ocean
But then I feel pain, and I wish it would rain
‘Cause someone forgot his suntan lotion
Oh, take me to the beach
Where all the pretty women are just out of reach
How could I have a worry or a care
With all those pretty ladies in just their underwear
It’s getting quite hot, so you go for a dip
But when you come up, your trunks have jumped ship
It can’t get much worse, it’s the end of the day
So you strut back to sure with your nuts on display
Soon you grow tired, it comes time to leave
Back to those cares that once made you grieve
On the way home, the traffic’s a beast
It sure makes you long for…. A day at the beach
Oh, take me to the beach
Where all the pretty women are just out of reach
How could I have a worry or a care
With all those pretty ladies in just their underwear
