Paradise by the Seashore Light (Crass and Champ’s Thang Undersea)
[Crass (Christian Weston Chandler):]
Crass remembers every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake and there was another, not another coral in sight
And I never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school, they were wishin' they were me that night
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
And it never felt so good, never felt so right
And we're glowin' like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowin' like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon
Holdin' ti- tight
C'mon
Hold tight
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the seashore light
[Champ (Christian Weston Chandler):]
Ain't no doubt about it
We're doubly blessed
We were barely seventeen
We barely dressed
Ain't no doubt about it
Baby got to go and shout it
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
[Crass:]
They're only seventeen, barely dressed
Champ don't ya hear my heart
Got it drowning out the radio
Been waiting so long
For you to come along and have some fun
I gotta let ya know
No you're never gonna regret it
So open up your eyes I got a big surprise
It'll feel all right
I wanna make- oh, sharp
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, and it felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon
Hold on tight
Come, c'mon
Hold on tight
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the seashore light
[Meat Loaf:]
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
Paradise by the dashboard light
[Crass:]
You got to do whatcha can
[Champ:]
Let Mother Nature do the rest
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
Barely seventeen
Barely
Gonna go all the way tonight
[Crass:]
We're gonna go all the way
Tonight's the night
Going tonight
Going all the way tonight
All the way tonight
[Unintelligible]
All the way, tonight's the night
Gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way, tonight's the night
[Champ:]

[Unintelligible]
[Crass:]
And when the feeling came upon me like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my God and on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore that then I would love you to the end of time
So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break a promise or cheat on(?) my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
It's all that I can do
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you, Champ
