Lyrics
SWELL
Life is sweet, on the beach,
chirping birds don?t lie
Campo sounds all around,
they?ll be there till they die
CHORUS: Converging forces,
cannot be denied
You can fight for rights,
you can fight for sites,
Only man?s rules apply
Warm soft sand flowing
through my hands,
Tempurature?s just fine
One by one people come
change is on their mind
CHORUS
The beach is sweet
All this heat
If no one steals you blind
Campo nights got too many lights
Who?ll protect us from this
Swell?
