In My Blue Backyard
On Saturday mornings I'm up at the break of the waves
Right through my window a big world of water awaits
To have a sea at your fin tips is such a special treat
I take a few steps out the back of my house for all the fun I need
In my blue backyard
It's open and wide and blue as the sky
In my blue backyard
There's no garden to hoe
No seaweeds to mow
Just fine fin friends who love to play
Dolphins to ride, bubbles to chase
Deep in the heart of my blue backyard
Whenever I'm swimming I know I won't see a fence
Out here there's no boundaries except for the continents
The seals and eels and humpbacks, the squid and pompaloo
Are some of my pals who'll be hanging around so I won't be alone
In my blue backyard
It's open and wide and blue as the sky
In my blue backyard
There's no garden to hoe
No seaweeds to mow
Just fine fin friends who love to play
Dolphins to ride, bubbles to chase
Deep in the heart of my blue backyard
Sometimes I hide in the coral beds that's where I go to think
I don't have to be inside 'til the sun starts to sink
In my blue backyard
In my blue backyard
In my blue backyard
