lyrics

Paddle from the shore

I woke up one morning felt like going to the beach
I wanted to try out that surfboard you'd given me
Nice morning walk the ocean wasn’t far to reach
Here we go put the wetsuit on let’s surf in one- two-three

Then when I paddled from the shore
I saw there were no waves the sea was calm
How do I surf if I can’t get no speed
How do I surf if I can’t surf

No way I could stand on this fucking thing
I kept falling down for like an hour and hurt my knee
My self-esteem slowly began to shrink
I wish I brought someone to tell me: dude stop! One-two-three

No need to paddle from the shore
You see there’s no waves the sea is calm (you could have stayed asleep)
Small waves won’t give you enough speed
Don’t try to surf if you can’t surf

(Next time) Before I paddle from the shore
I’ll make sure there’s waves that it’s not calm
(if yes then I will stay asleep)
My waves are gonna give me enough speed
Next time I’ll try to surf I will surf!

about

The Hops Party Jicin, Czech Republic

The two of us - that's the band. We like simple, noisy rock'n'roll, cranked fuzz pedals and a lot of beer. Beer's the main topic of most of the songs. The rest is pretty much about how hard we suck on surf. Feel free to download our first record. Cheers. ... more
