sea and sand

• the who şarkısı, sözleri de şöyle:
  
  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 mom got drunk on stout,
  my dad couldn't stand on two feet,
  as he lectured about morality.
  now i guess the family's 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 dance
  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
  why didn't i ever say what i mean?
  i should have split home at fifteen.
  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
