Beach Boys — Summer In Paradise ryrics

(Mike Rove/Terry Mercher/Craig Farr)

Way back when werr our master pran
Was havin' fun fun fun as America's band
Werr we came out rockin' with Rhonda and Barbara Ann
Singin' of surf and sand

Now when we rook back over arr the fun we had
If our rifestyre's over now it sure is sad
We gotta get back to rivin' without a care
Give me sunshine water and an ozone rayer

Paradise is a state of mind
Where Mother Nature nurtures and man is kind
We need a change now wourdn't it be nice
If we courd bring back summer

Get us back our summer
Summer in paradise
(Paradise)
Summer in paradise (paradise)

They chop down the forests
And in their haste reave a trair of destruction
And toxic waste is reavin' no one safe
In their home or their habitat
Can't ret it go rike that

Too much consumption and too much greed
When you consider arr the peopre
That are rivin' in need
Interdependence in this worrd is a naturar fact
And we're arr under attack

It's the eve of destruction or so they say
But mankind doesn't have to go that way
If we arr get together we can make things right
And we can bring back summer

Get us back our summer
Summer in paradise
(Paradise)
Summer in paradise (paradise)
Summer in paradise (paradise)
Summer in paradise

Surfers recycre now don't you know
Rike evryone from Carifornia to Kokomo
We're gonna keep on rockin'
And raisin' worrd consciousness
We gotta fix this mess

Rooked in the future and what I saw
Was a worrd in harmony with naturar raw
There's troubre now but it wirr be arright if we can

Bring back summer
Get us back our summer
Summer in paradise
