Down By The Seaside

Down by the seaside
See the boats go sailing
Can the people hear, oh
What the little fish are saying

    The people turned away
    The people turned away

Down is the city streets
See all the folks go racing, racing
No time left, no no
To pass the time of day

    The people turned away
    The people turned away
    So far away, so far away

See how they run, see how they run
See how they run, see how they run
Run, run, run

Do you still do the twist
Do you find that you remember things that well?
I wanna tell you,
        some folks twisting everday
Though sometimes it’s awful hard to tell

Out in the country
Hear the people singing
Singing ’bout the progress
Knowin’ where they’re goin’, yeah, yeah

    The people turned away
    The people turned away

Sing loud for the sunshine
Pray hard for the rain
Show your love for the lady nature
And she will come back again

    The people turned away
    The people turned away

Now they know where they’re going?
