Lyrics
When the summer kids are all back in town
If it's Sunday on the beach, I'm around
I'm not guiding or providing
I'm just gliding on down
Here a flock of teenage girls, golden brown
Watch some volley-ballers vie for the crown
They're confiding and deciding
I'm just gliding on down
Somewhere a pager pages, somewhere a message plays
I've been on call for ages, but not today .......
Got my captain marvel sunglasses wound
'Round my head to keep my eyes out of bounds
I'm not hiding or presiding
I'm just gliding on down
Got my novel in my bag on the ground
But it's nothing you would call too profound
I'm not siding or dividing
I'm just gliding on down
(Sorry!)
