Brian Wilson - Surf's Up lyrics

A diamond necklace played the pawn. Hand in hand, some drummed along To a handsome mannered baton. A blind cla** aristocracy. Back through the opera gla** you see The pit and the pendulum drawn. Columnated ruins domino! Canvas the town and brush the back-drop. Are you sleeping? Hung velvet over taking me. Dim chandelier awaken me. To a song dissolved in the dawn. The music hall, a costly bow. The must all is lost for now, To a muted trumpeter swan. Columnated ruins domino! Canvas the town and brush the back-drop. Are you sleeping? Brother John? Dove nested towers, The hour was strike the street, quicksilver moon. Carriage across the fog-two-step to Lampight cellar tune. The laughs come hard In Auld Lang Syne. The gla** was raised, the fired-roast. The fullness of the wine. A dim last toasting. While at Port, adieu or die. A choke of grief, heart-hardened eye, Beyond belief, a broken man too tough to cry. Surf's Up! Aboard a tidal wave. Come about hard and join the young And often spring you gave. I heard the word. Wonderful thing! A children's song. A children's song, have you listened as they play? Their song is love and the children know the way.
