The Living End - Ride the Wave Boy lyrics

Standing on the beach watching the waves crash on the sand He doesn't care about tomorrow, he's got a better plan He's got a man uptown who supplies him with a cheap escape He's a man on a mission, he ain't ever gonna listen Got a ticket on a one way train But he's heading the wrong way Boy Ride the wave boy Ride the wave boy Ride the wave boy Hand on the trigger His whole world marches by The waves are getting bigger And he's out on a mission to chase the next ride Getting ready for one last trip And then he's gonna give it away But the cards of life don't fall the same way twice And before you can leave the game The dealer must get paid Boy Ride the wave boy Ride the wave boy Ride the wave boy Ride the wave boy Well I was too busy to stop and see The desperation in your eyes You're lost inside a never-ending dream Chasing the next ride He crawls down to the edge of the water, He's drifting away They never found him, they thought he had drowned But it didn't matter anyway He'd be on the next wave Boy Ride the wave boy Ride the wave boy Ride the wave boy Ride the wave boy Ride the wave boy
