lyrics

I wanna be a Beach Boy
Harmonize until I die
And if I could be a Beach Boy
I'd be the coolest guy oh-woah yeah

I wanna be a Beach Boy
I would surf everyday
Actually I probably wouldn't
Mike Love never surfed anyway

I'd stand out on the beach and sing my little songs
I'd never go in the water, stay on the sand all day long
People could then invite me out to surf
And I would have to tell them, I never really learned
But here it goes

I wanna be a Beach Boy
Harmonize until I die
And if I could be a Beach Boy
I'd be the coolest guy oh-woah-oah

I wanna be a Beach Boy
I would surf everyday
Actually I probably wouldn't
Mike Love never surfed anyway

I would sing in my room, a place that I can go now
I'd put out 7 albums in about a year or so now
People would invite me to their hula parties (Hula hula!)
Because they all believe... I surfed out to Hawaii now

I wanna be a Beach Boy
I would surf everyday
Actually I probably wouldn't
Mike Love never surfed anyway
(And neither did Brian Wilson!)
