The Ocean

Velvet Underground

1969 Live Version

--------------------------------------------

Here comes the Ocean

And the waves down by the shore

Here comes the Ocean

And the waves down by the sea

Earth is a hollow hair bought of a bigger head

It nearly drives me crazy

I am a lazy son

I never get things down

...(Unknown)

But here comes the waves

Down by the shore

Washing the eye of the land

That has been down by the sea

Down by the sea

Down by the sea

Down by the sea

Here comes the ocean and the waves

Down by the shore

Here comes the ocean and the waves

Down by the sea

(Incense or In s** or Insects) for evil thoughts, thought of by selfish men

It nearly drives me crazy

I am a lazy son

I never get things done

...(Unknown)

Here comes the waves down by the shore

Washing the eye of the land that has been down by the sea

Down by the sea

Here come the waves

Here come the waves

Here come the waves

Here comes the ocean

And the waves

Down by the sea

Here comes the Ocean

And the waves

Where have they been?

Silver and black with night

Heres to a summers night

An empty splendid castle

Glowering alone at night

The princess has had a fright

Madness seeks out the lover

And here come the waves down by the shore

Washing the soul of the body

That comes from the depths of the sea

Here comes the ocean

And the waves down by the sea

Here comes the ocean

And the waves, where have they been

Don't swim tonight my love

The tide is out my love

Malcom's curse haunts our family

Oh yes, loud in which, ruler of filthy seas, revelling heavans justice

And here come the waves

And save for a scream

There's much like a song

To be heard, in the wind, that blows by the sea.

Like the wind

Here come the waves,

Here come the waves,

Here come the waves
