There are waves outside my window
There are airplanes in the sky
There are ships on the horizon
And a beach always nearby
Fish tacos on the table, no surfer can resist
How did I get this lucky?
Tell me who gets to live like this

I left my inhibitions receding with the tide
Talking with the turtles lying side by side
Seeking wiser counsel on a
Girl I can't resist pass the seaweed salad
Tell me who gets to live like this

Singing for money, playin' for fun
How did I wind up in this band on the run?
Wake it up, make it up, shake it up
Take it up there's more ways than one
Jack of all trades, master of none

With fortune or without it
For paydays or for free
More latitudes than attitudes
More everyone and less me
Just knowing what is possible
Is the ring you don't want to miss
I'm happy to inform you
That we get to live like this
That we all get to live this live like this

Hmm, get to live like this
Get to live like this get to live like this
Get to live like this get to live like this
