Lyrics
Oooh, yeah
Try again
Ready? Go!
The beach is a place where a man can feel
He's the only soul in the world that's real
But I see a face coming through the haze
I remember him from those crazy days
Ain't you the guy who used to set the paces
Light it up in front of a hundred faces?
I don't suppose you would remember me
But I used to follow you back in '63
I've got a new job and I'm newly born
You should see me dressed up in my uniform, thank you
I work in a hotel all gilt and flash
Remember that cab where the doors were smashed?
Bellboy, I've gotta get running now
Bellboy, keep my lip buttoned down
Bellboy, carry the bloody baggage out
Bellboy, always running at someone's bleeding
You know how I feel
Always running at someone's heel
Some nights I still sleep on the beach
Remembering when stars were in reach
I remember in early to work
Remember your right boots for my perks
The beach is a place where a man can feel
He's the only soul in the world that's real
But I see a face coming through the haze
(Crazy days, crazy days, crazy days, crazy days)
Ain't you the guy who used to set the paces
Light it up in front of a hundred faces?
I don't suppose you would remember me
But I used to follow you back in '63
People often change but when I look in your eyes
You could learn a lot from a decadent life like mine
The secret to me, it ain't flown like a flag
I wear it behind this little badge, what says
Bellboy, I've gotta get running now
Bellboy, keep my lip buttoned down
Bellboy, carry the bloody baggage out
Bellboy, always running at someone's heel
You know how I feel
Always running at someone's heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
Heel
