  • It's really true how nothin matters
    No mad, mad world and no mad hatters
    No one's pitchin cause their ain't no batters
    In coconut grove

    Don't bother door
    Theirs no one comin
    The oceans roar, were double drummin
    Of many silly thoughts and silly ways

    The ocean breeze has cooled my mind
    The salty days are her's and mine
    Just to do what we wanna

    Tonight we'll find a dune that's our
    And softly she will speak the stars
    Until sun-up

    It's all from havin' someone knowin'
    Just which way your head is blowin'
    Who's always warm like in the mornin'
