No estoy
muy seguro pero creo que este EP navideño tan sólo ha sido
editado en formato cassette. El K7 incluye cuatro canciones, dos de las
cuales son versiones. Una de estas versiones es "Frosty The Snowman", canción
escrita por Brian Wilson para el álbum navideño de los Beach
Boys. La otra versión es una canción de navidad tradicional
interpretada frenéticamente al más puro estilo surf.
Aquí
teneis las letras de los 2 temas propios del disco...
I'm
not sure but I think that this Christmas Ep has just been released on cassette
format. It includes 4 songs, two of which are covers. One of the covers
is "Frosty the Snowman", written by Brian Wilson for the Beach Boys' Christmas
album. The other is a wildly performed traditional christmas carrol. It's
instrumental.
Surfin' On Christmas
Day
(C.Gilling/C.Pearce)
It's Christmas day and
the snow is falling down
there's a lonely surfer
boy in London Town
all his friends have flown
back to the beach at home
he never made it, now
he's on his own.
The radio's got nothing
to say'cos he can't tune in to "Tripple J",
no gigs to see, there's
nothing on TV
he's dreaming of a place
he'd rather be.
Surfin' On Christmas
Day
at Sunshine Beach or
down at Byron bay
doesn't wanna hear
what the Queen's gotta say
he'd rather be surfin'
Christmas Day.
The room is cold and the
cupboards are bare
he's got no tinnies on
the Fridedairel
ong hot summer nights
and melted Cherry Ripes...
are only thirteen thousand
miles away.
Down on the beach where
it's 80 degrees
they've got no turkeys
or Christmas trees
but where the surfer girls
are checkin' out the swell
you know that's where
he'd really rather be.
Surfin' On Christmas
Day
at Sunshine Beach or
down at Byron bay
doesn't wanna hear
what the Queen's gotta say
he'd rather be surfin'
Christmas Day.
Now listen to what the
wise men say
God created surf on the
7th day
and they were lost looking
for inmaculate waves
now you wanna feel the
sand beneath your feet
instead of the slush from
the city streets
but now you're gonna dream
yourself to sleep.
Surfin' On Christmas
Day
at Sunshine Beach or
down at Byron bay
doesn't wanna hear
what the Queen's gotta say
he'd rather be surfin'
Christmas Day. (x4)
Santa's Got A
Brand New Board
(S.Dean)
Santa's got a brand new
board
he sold his sleigh to
pay to go abroad
it was getting pretty
cold sitting 'round the frozen North
Santa's got a brand new
board.
Santa traded in his sleigh
he thought about a secondhand
Cevrolete
for gettin' 'round the
world in a single day
now he's taken to the
waves.
Saint Nick on a "Big
Gun", he's the number one surfer for miles around
when his hangin' ten
the Christmas lists you send...
won't be read til Easter
comes around
Santa's gonna shed a tear
he won't wanna stop surfing
to fly raindeer
though Christmas comes
but once a year
his sleigh is just a bitch
to steer
Santa's got a brand new
board
he's got no worries 'bout
trying to get insured
when you're paid in mince
pies what can you afford?
Santa's got a brand new
board
Saint Nick on a "Big
Gun", he's the number one surfer for miles around
when his hangin' ten
the Christmas lists you send...
won't be read til Easter
comes around
Santa's got a brand new
board...
