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
