Beatnik Beach
(Caffey/Carlisle)
Dance to the poetry
It's gonna be just you and me
We'll groove on that groovy beat
It'll be boss keen neat yeah
The gang they'll all be there
Join the fun and don't be a square
We'll lipsync a go-go
Just like the Lloyd Thaxton show yeah
CHORUS
Beatnik Beach
It's really neat
Limbo down
Hit the ground
Put on your paisleys
Put on your black beret too
Join all us beatniks
Nothing better could happen to you yeah
CHORUSI'm running out the door
I feel so tied down
I'm walking on quicksand
I want solid ground
I don't feel alive
I must be halfway dead
Sooner or later you'd find out
What's really in my head
Secrets in your heart
You keep them to yourself
You hold on until it's too late
We had our eyes open
We had the best of plans
But people change
Because people can
One or the other gets restless
And hears the wild wind call
One picks up the pieces
While the glass house falls
Secrets in your heart
You keep them to yourself
You hold on until it's too late
If I say I'm sorry
Would that be enough
I admit I failed
At being tough enough
I wish I was truthful
I wish I was brave
Wish I wasn't turning
And running away
Secrets in your heart
You keep them to yourself
You hold on until it's too late
