Yellow Beach Umbrella
(专辑: Broken Blossom - 1977)
When I
am a
flyer, I'll fly down to Miami, get a
room in one of those big resort hotels. And nobody there will ever get to know me well. And nobody there will ever get to know me well. I'll be just another yellow beach umbrella on the
shore of the
southern sea. I'll be a
mystery to everyone. I
won't take you along with me. When I
am a
driver, I'll drive to Pensacola, sleep in the
sand whether the
weather brings sunshine or rain. And nobody there will ever get to know my name, oh no. And nobody there will ever get to know my name. I'll be just another yellow beach umbrella on the
shore of the
southern sea. Mmm, I'll be a
mystery to everyone. I
won't take you along with me. When I
am a
rider, I'll ride up to Tempico. Ohh, don't telephone honey, your money'd be wasted on a
telegram 'cause nobody there will ever find out who I
am. Nobody there will ever find me! I'll be just another big bright umbrella on the
shore of the
southern sea. Gonna be a
mystery to everyone. I
won't take you along with me. Alone. All alone. On my own. So happy to be gone, gone, gone, gone to new news and new faces, new feuds and new places. Underneath my yellow umbrella. Won't be holding hands with a
mobster fella. Mmm, I'm in the
mood to be swimming in the
nude, sinning too. Too bad you won't be there to see. Grand. Feels so grand lying in the
sand. Just working on this tan of mine. Ohh, you know I
think that life is just the
greatest thing. Goodbye!! It's goodbye, darling. Your turn to cry. And you know good and well why, darling. Why you got the
gong. I
was into you to long. Underneath my big bright umbrella I'll be breaking hearts with a
buff young fella. Woo-oo-oo, whoo-oo-oo. How was I
to know? Plop plop, fizz fizz, oh what a
relief it is.
