Long ago There was a place We would go To celebrate This was when We were kids Down the hill Across the bridge Into the sand Beneath the ridge Just below PCH Stumbling all the way Stumbling all the way We pulled our sheets And stuffed our beds With dirty clothes And helmet heads We snuck out the Window Station 2 (contd.)
