I wake and the sun has returned

Trees with their majesty back

I walk down to the sea

Yeah, I'll borrow some wax



I can sit out here like a teabag

No more exercise for me now I've made it out the back



Breathing in the colours

The blue was resting up for today

While it was kicking back

They were glass-blowing these waves



It's how the gum trees

are stamped into the sky

I could be eight years old

with these colours in my eyes



Waking up in a dream out here 

Sun is so low

It's throwing shimmers at me

Skimming its stones



I can sit out here like a teabag

No more exercise now I've made it out the back



Back there they're bitching

I'm guilty of it too

Out here if you want a wave there's another one coming soon



I'm not surfing

I'm sitting out the back

All the kids are dropping in on the old man on the plank

The kids are dropping in on the old man on the plank
