I got my swimcap and comb and my paperback book
that I'm almost through
I got my lipstick and mirror and my suntan lotion
and my cam'ra too.
I got my beach bag full of all the necessary items
for a day in the sun
And of course it wouldn't be
like me if I didn't bring along -
Some sunglasses - mmm -to hide behind.
Sunglasses - mmm - to cry behind.
Sunglasses - mmm - to die behind.
Dear while I lie and cry and sigh
and hurt and watch you while you flirt
With your somebody new - I'm makin' me blue.
I brought my towel and transistor radio
so I could tell all the time
'Cause the Top Forty records and the weather sports
will get you off of my mind.
I'll rent an umbrella from the lifeguard fella
with the dreamy eyes
And you can bet I couldn't forget
my old stand-bys -
My sunglasses - mmm - to hide behind.
Sunglasses - mmm - to cry behind.
Sunglasses - mmm - to die behind.
Dear while I lie and cry and sigh
and hurt and watch you while you flirt
With your somebody new - I'm makin' me blue.
Sunglasses - mmm
Sunglasses - mmm
Sunglasses - mmm
Sunglasses - mmm
Sunglasses - mmm
