Charming snakes on Venice Beach on vacation Rollerblades and brand-new shades And everything is soundtracked by my Walkman The motion of the crowd against the ocean and the clouds Feel the heat drop, get something to eat, stop, get it go Smokey haze and a fire in the sky Watch the sunset burn the day Then you hit me like a soft breeze ooh I need you (ooh) Shiver when the palm trees sway Slip away (ooh) The shade it slowly fades away And wakes my senses Sky is blue, I think of you And the grass is always green Everybody drawn by the dream Call my boss and quit my job, been workin' on my tan Smokey haze and a fire in the sky Watch the sunset burn the day Then you hit me like a soft breeze ooh I need you (ooh) Shiver when the palm trees sway I can't stay (ooh)
