Letra de Sand Dollars

[Verso 1]
I've been humming a high note
Maybe something that I wrote
Out sailing in my boat
I’m not really sure

I’m still singing the same tune
I’ve been kicking around since June
All morning and afternoon
Now it’s all a blur

I’ve been listening to sea shells
To hear the stories that they tell
Of high times and tide swells
That have yet to occur

[Pre Coro 1]
Backsliding down the drain
Partially taking all the blame

[Coro]
Chasing coins to fill the purse
Is it really better or for worse
Is it a blessing or a curse
To pass the buck

Is it a bounty or a bust
Is it precious metal or just rust
Well it seems it’s up to us
So wish us luck

[Verso 2]
I kept making a U-turn
Ended up with a sunburn
But the lesson that I learned
Was worth the skin that peeled

I climbed so many mountains
It’s not even worth counting
All the drinks in the fountain
Before it was revealed

[Pre Coro 2]
Backsliding down the drain
Partially taking all the blame
From the copper to the kettle
The stamen to the petal
We watch the value of sand dollars crumble

[Coro]
