THE SEASIDE WONDERS (OF A PLASTIC SPADE)
In the happiness of the sunshine’s brief gloss
The seagulls in a stubborn attempt to show whom is boss
Sift through bits of chips and candy floss
While the old folks ramble for the nearest shade
On benches just by the hypnotic arcade
Complaining about the state of the over spirited trade
Where else but here could these fickle thoughts be made?
Where else but here could these fickle thoughts be made?
The seaside wonders of a plastic spade
The seaside wonders of a plastic spade
Women walk their husbands occasionally stopping
To admire the luxury of window shopping
& their
Children whining for ice creams are easily distracted
Now they are not thinking of chocolate streams
Until the next moment it seems
Where else but here could these fickle thoughts be made?
Where else but here could these fickle thoughts be made?
The seaside wonders of a plastic spade The seaside wonders of a plastic spade
It could all end in tears God bless the old dears
And those side street shops selling sad souvenirs
Where else but here could these fickle thoughts be made?
Where else but here could these fickle thoughts be made?
The seaside wonders of a plastic spade The seaside wonders of a plastic spade
