The Submarine Races

(专辑： Ride The Wild Surf - 1964)

My baby don't like fancy places
She just wants to make it to the submarine races
She really goes for ―

Hey! Hey buddy! Hey, hey

Get out of here, would you?

Hey, are you gonna score some submarine races?

Well, it's sort of an excuse, you know

Excuse?

At first she didn't know what it was all ―

Look, hey, buddy, I'd sure like to go along
'Cause I really like submarines

No you don't know ―

You know, I've been studying 'em
Since I been a little whippersnapper

No, you don't understand there

Since I been knee-high to a periscopy

No, actually it's just an excuse ―

Why I studied about all the famous ones
You know, like the Nautilus and the U2

Well, we just go down to the beach

And we sort of park by the ―

Park? Well, I'd be glad to go with you
And look out the window

Well, I don't think really my girl would like that too
Much because we like to ―

Well, just tell her I'm just trying to like a friend you know

No, well, it's just kind of private
There's really no races
You know what I mean?

Oh, there aren't? Well
You mean that you can just look
At 'em can't you, like from afar, you know

Well, see really what we do ―

I'd like to observe them from your window if I could

No, but you can't because we just go down and park
Like on the end of Chautauqua there ―

Chautauqua?

And like we, like, look at the ocean ―

Look at the ocean? Well I'd like to look at the ocean
With you fellow, you know

No, but I look at her and she looks and me
And we smile and ―
Yeah, I'd smile, too, if I looked at you, buddy
Well, anyhow, I'd sure like to come along
Now, look, if you just take me along with you
I'll do nothing but sit in the backseat and build my Revell submarine kit race

Well, we don't particularly want you along

Well, look now, I'll be very quiet, very quiet
I'll even let you glue on my conning tower

Well, you're not necessarily involved in the whole situation...
