Beach Fire
Words and Music by Ed Johnson
There was a girl of immaculate fashion sense
Not gonna alter anything without a pretense
But she’s so fine, got something in mind
One look at her and I could really tell
That an antidote of fresh air would surely help
It’s not Prada time, lose the Calvin Klein
Take her to a beach fire, and get her to loosen up
A laid back reality that I am cookin’ up
Trade the Massaratti for a beat up surfer van
Forget the Tiffany, got some beads from a Rasta Man
Won’t happen overnight, okay maybe just might
Got a limited window of opportunity
She’s not staying long, gonna hop a plane ‘cross the sea
There must be a way, try to get her to stay
Bring the idea to her
Maybe not so sure
Hell, flip a coin, you never know, the moment is yours
Okay, gotta admit, I so do like her look
Don’t really wanna change how she stepped from a fashion book
She just needs a break, from all the fakes
Maybe she’ll respond to the promise of serenade
A guy, a guitar, vodka tonics and lemonade
Or probably not, we’ll work with what we got
