[Intro]
I have a drink, I start to sink
I put my toe in the ocean
I have a drink, I start to sink
Another toe in the ocean

[Verse 1]
Down on the shelf, an elf I saw
I took his picture, he was waving
I passed again and now they're gone
I think my picture is worth saving

[Pre-Chorus]
No more waiting for a new day
You've got to swim sometimes

[Chorus]
I'll be here for the rest of my life
Up in the land of green
Making love in the cool, black sand
Thinking where I've been
Oohoohooh, I put my toe in the ocean
Another toe in the ocean

[Verse 2]
Merry making with the fairies
Going down to the onion patch
To you and me, to shining seas
I see the lights of Edward Thatch
[Pre-Chorus]
No more waiting for a new day
You've got to swim sometimes

[Chorus]
I'll be here for the rest of my life
Up in the land of green
Making love in the cool, black sand
Thinking where I've been
Oohoohooh, I put my toe in the ocean
I have a drink, I start to sink
Another toe in the ocean

[Outro]
I have a drink, I start to sink
I put my toe in the ocean
I have a drink, I start to sink
Another toe in the ocean
I have a drink, I start to sink
Another toe in the ocean
