lyrics

Surf's up so wake up
It's a great day to go to the beach
Better pack up the beach bag, get a towel and a mag
I look up there's five cups, a paintbrush and cigarette butts
On my beach
I look out, there's three thongs and two bongs
On my beach

Pick it up! All that stuff
The ciggy butts
I've had enough

Paddle out on my wave
And all that stuff's tripping up my turtles and whales
Go for a skate and there's a couch, a fridge and a car
In my lake

Take the pup for a walk
Dodge wrappers, plastic forks, sweet'n'sour sauce
Icypoles, remote controls and Barbie Dolls
On my walk

Pick it up! All that stuff
The ciggy butts
I've had enough
Hey you
Think you're too cool to pick it up?
It's not that hard

Tally
Cooly
Palmy
Nobby's
Surfers
Byron Bay

Kuta
Legian
Nusa Dua
Canggu
And you too Byron Bay

Venice
Maui
Santa Monica
And you too Byron Bay

Bondi
Bells Beach
Coogee
Bronte
And you too Byron Bay

I've had enough!
