The Beach

Jonathan Richman

Well now the beach be one of the best things we got
'Cause it's not what you have on, it's what you have not
No more silly clothes for you, no more shoes no necktie too
And the beach be one of the best things that we got

Well now the beach be one of the best things there be
Well a fashion show is there for you to see
See whose bum you like the best
See who's got a hairy chest
And the beach be one of the best things there be

OK - start up the car
(Rumunuma Rumunuma Rumunuma Ruh)
We're goin' to the beach - get started yeah
(Rumunuma Rumunuma Rumunuma Ruh)
We're goin' to the beach get started

I say the beach be one of the best places to go
I say the beach be one of the best things that I know
Cruddy sugar lemonade
But I love people when they're on parade
And the beach be one of the best things that I know

OK - start up the car
(Rumunuma Rumunuma Rumunuma Ruh)
We're goin' to the beach - get started yeah
(Rumunuma Rumunuma Rumunuma Ruh)
We're goin' to the beach get started

I said the beach be one of the best things we got
Where it's not what you have on but what you have not
And I want that stink and I want that sweat
In fact the beach be better than most things get
In fact the beach be one of the best things we got
Where it's not what you have on but what you have not

Cruddy sugar lemonade
But I love people when they're on parade
And the beach be one of the best things we got
Where it's not what you have on, it's what you have not
