That Faraway Beach


That Faraway Beach
by Lord R.e. Taylor

That island you look at
Watching the people on the beach
Laughing and playing
Drinking some kind of drink
A just laying on the beach
Trying to be darker than they were before
No one has a single thought in their head
Real life does not exist for them
Still, would you want to do it
Leave everything behind and be someone new
You bet you would but life is real
Your job is real and your kids are real
So, you keep watching that island
And keep hoping to end up there someday
Until then, just sit under your sunlamp
Drink that flat beer from last night
And lastly, put on Baywatch
