Down at the shore there's a place where there's no one vacationing There's just the sound of the call of the wild overcoming the fear of the unknown And I've got something to help you understand Something waiting there beneath the sand My metal detector Is with me all of the time I'm the inspector over the mine Look past the squawking gull Look past the volleyball Ignore the mountain of discarded folderol 'Cause I've got something to help you understand Something waiting there beneath the land My metal detector Is with me all of the time I'm the inspector over the mine Metal detector, watch it shine Every seashell has a story to tell if you're listening And underneath every shell there's a story as well if you've heard enough of the sea Then everything on the top will just suddenly stop seeming interesting So listen now to the sound of the things that are found underground Don't need no volleyball Don't need no squawking gull Don't need to look at any bathing beauty doll Cause I've got something to help you understand Something waiting there beneath the sand My metal detector Is with me all of the time I'm the inspector over the mine Look past the squawking gull Look past the volleyball Ignore the mountain of discarded folderol 'Cause I've got something to help you understand Something waiting there beneath the sand My metal detector Is with me all of the time I'm the inspector over the mine Metal detector, watch it shine Don't need no volleyball Don't need no squawking gull Metal detector, all the time. |
