lyrics

you can unemploy me deny my PPP
shut down the slaughterhouse I’ll go without steak
but don’t shut down my surf break
you can close the prisons set the inmates free
shutter all the bakeries outlaw cake
but don’t shut down my surf break
you can enact draconian measures
and I’ll forego most of life’s pleasures
I’ll take a vow of abstinence I won’t drink beer
proclamations my wife will be happy to hear
you can close the city pool and my kids grammar school
you can do away with the handshake
but don’t shut down my surf break
if you shut the town down and the university
and the British pub then for fuck’s sake
don’t shut down me surf break
you can enact draconian measures
and I’ll forego most of life’s pleasures
I’ll even go without me pint but for fuck’s sake
don’t shut down me surf break
