Paul McCartney
Side of the Ocean
[Intro]
But we haven't done a bloody thing all day
We're so sorry
But the kettle's on the boil
And we're so easily called away
Chilling on the side of the ocean, chilling on the side of the ocean
Chilling on the side of the ocean, chilling on the side of the ocean

[Verse 1]
I'm from the side of the ocean with the palm trees
Even in the wintertime you get a calm breeze
Slight chance of rain, never see no snow or sleet
? I be a seer with this poetry

[Hook]
Starving while I'm dreaming cause I'm Edgar Allan Poe
John Lennon knowledge like he never had before
Streets steady calling bring that chopper to your door
Run from the violence, run
Now pick your flow

[Verse 2]
Now Imma a east side church boy, deep valley raised, uh!
Mid-valley residence, suburbia parade, uh!
Women, weed and weather
Please don't rain on my parade
If you do I guess I'll shower carpe diem, "seize the day"
And I'm just
[Hook]

[Bridge]
You know sometimes when I'm stressed out
I like to go over to the ocean, you know
Ri-ri-right here in Oceanside, and just
Sit at the pier, you know what I'm saying
And, and watch the sailboat and the speedboat
You know I see the sailboat it just drifts off in the wind
You know, going with the flow
And then, and then you got the, the speedboat
It-it-it just, you know what I'm saying
It kinda goes real fast, you know what I'm saying
You can see the direct contrast and it's amazing man
I tell you, it's amazing
You know what I'm saying?
Yea, yea

[Verse 3]
Now this the side of the ocean city anthem
I got a lot of confidence my momma say I'm handsome
And Jesus paid my ransom, forgive me if I'm rambling
God gave me ideas promised me a mansion

[Hook]
[Verse 4]
Why them gangsters play with guns
And now momma got to cry, uh!
See them selling drugs and say what ? between your thighs, uh!
Speaker for my city cause I see a great demise
Nobody's believing
Everybody's perceived the truth to be a lie
And I'm just

[Hook]

[Outro] (x8)
Chilling on the side of the ocean
