THE WHO lyrics : "Sea And Sand"

Here by the sea and sand
Nothing ever goes as planned,
I just couldn't face going home

It was just a drag on my own.
They finally threw me out
My mother got drunk on stout,

My dad couldn't stand on two feet,
As he lectured about morality.
Now I guess the families complete,

With me hanging round on the street
Or here on the beach.


The girl I love
Is a perfect dresser,
Wears every fashion

Gets it to the tee.
Heavens above,
I got to match her

She knows just how
She wants her man to be
Leave it to me.


My jacket's gonna be cut slim and checked
Maybe a touch of seersucker with an open neck

I ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neat
I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet.


I see her dancing
Across the ballroom
UV light making starshine

Of her smile.
I am the face,
She has to know me,

I'm dressed up better than anyone
Within a mile.


So how come the other tickets look much better?
Without a penny to spend they dress to the letter.
How come the girls come on oh so cool

Yet when you meet 'em, every one's a fool?

Come sleep on the beach

Keep within my reach
I just want to die with you near
I'm feeling so high with you here.

I'm wet and I'm cold
But thank God I ain't old
I should have split home at fifteen

Why didn't I ever say what I mean?
There's a story that the grass is so green,
What did I see?

Where have I been?

Nothing is planned, by the sea and the sand
