When the horses on the roundabout Cease to smile And the wind whips tarpaulin on The deck-chair piles And wet pebble-dash looks like skin Of crocodiles I take a ride down by the sea Take a ride on my trusty steed I grabbed life by the handlebars And it begged me to stop Rode it down the hill Peddled hard right from the top My skin was greedy for the thrill Of a million rain-drops My lungs they gorged on the gushing air My eyes like pin-balls darting everywhere Well I know The 7th wave is the biggest wave Mother used to say But they will roll back Into the sea the very same way I look up and see a thundercloud Swoop and rise But it’s the starlings from the pier I quickly realize As my front wheel buckles And sends me up into the skies And my face skids along wet concrete And gets overtaken by my feet Well I know The 7th wave is the biggest wave Mother used to say But they will roll back Into the sea the very same way The 7th wave is the biggest wave Mother used to say But they will roll back Into the sea the very same way And lying on the ground I see the 7th wave roll in Like an excited puppy Tongue out clattering And tripping I see it as it makes its way Up the beach; grasping And see it swallowed up by the sea So I set fire to my rusty steed Well I know The 7th wave is the biggest wave Mother used to say But they will roll back Into the sea the very same way The 7th wave is the biggest wave Mother used to say But they will roll back Into the sea the very same way
