lyrics

Sunburnt Boys


Sunburnt boys are playing on the beach
Jump so high, the ball you’re throwing flies
Out of reach, curving through the afternoon
What you want and what you need
Lightly oiled, machine-tooled

I watch from my chair,
You continue unaware –
The tide will soon come in and clean the beach where you have been


You’re so cool, sunburnt boys I’m on to you
You’re so cool, diamond-honed and finely tuned
You’re so cool, sunburnt boys I’m on to you
You’re so cool, lightly oiled, machine-tooled

5am, up at sunrise on the beach,
I saw your friends heading home to get some sleep
Invisible, by virtue of my camouflage,
I didn’t seem to catch their eyes –
Not like you caught mine.
