Surf's Up Lyrics

The diamond necklace played the pawn Hand in hand some drummed along, oh To a handsome man and baton
A blind class aristocracy Back through the opera glass you see The pit and the pendulum drawn
Columnated ruins domino
Hung velvet overtaken me Dim chandelier awaken me To a song dissolved in the dawn
The music hall a costly bow The music all is lost for now To a muted trumpeter swan
Columnated ruins domino Canvass the town and brush the backdrop Are you sleeping, brother John?
Dove nested towers the hour was Strike the street quicksilver moon Carriage across the fog Two-step to lamp lights cellar tune The laughs come hard in Auld Lang Syne
The glass was raised, the fired grows The fullness of the wine, the dim last toasting While at port adieu or die A choke of grief, heart hardened I Beyond belief a broken man too tough to cry
Surf's up, aboard a tidal wave Come about hard and join The young and often spring you gave I heard the word, wonderful thing A children's song
