Bell Boy

The beach is a place where a man can feel
He's the only soul in the world that's real
But I see a face coming through the haze
I remember him from those crazy days
Crazy days, crazy daysAin't you the guy who used to set the paces
Riding up in front of a hundred faces?
I don't suppose, you would remember me
But I used to follow you back in '63I've got a good job and I'm newly born
You should see me, dressed up in my uniform
I work in a hotel, all gilt and flash
Remember the [Incomprehensible], where the doors we smashed?Bell Boy! I've gotta get runnin' now
Bell Boy! Keep my lip buttoned down
Bell Boy! Carry this baggage out
Bell Boy! Always running at someone's [Incomprehensible] heel
You know how I feel
Always runnin' at someone's heelSome nights I still sleep on the beach
Remember when stars were in reach
Then I wander in early to work
Spend my day lickin' boots for my perksThe beach is a place where a man can feel
He's the only soul in the world that's real
But I see a face, comin' through the haze
I remember him from those crazy days
Crazy days, crazy days, crazy days, crazy daysAin't you the guy who used to set the paces
Riding up in front of a hundred faces?
I don't suppose you would remember me
But I used to follow you back in '63People often change but when I look in your eyes
You could learn a lot, from a life like mine
The secret to me, it ain't flown like a flag
I carry it behind this pretty little badge, what says?Bell Boy! I gotta get runnin' now
Bell Boy! Keep the lip buttoned down
Bell Boy! Carry the bloody baggage out
Bell Boy! Always runnin' at someone's heel
You know how I feel
Always runnin' at someone's heel
