Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Look out there, that's where oil comes from
From deep in the ocean's groove
It used to be greener, glorious trees grew here
Now it's just condos and land
[Verse 2]
I am a starfish washed upon the shore
Stuck in the sun's bloom, just waiting to die
You are the strong tide pulling me back into sea
Now I can't wait to live again
[Verse 3]
If you die in a war, make sure it is worth it
Put your hand in the sand on the coast of Alabama
If you die in a war, make sure it is worth it
Put your hand in the sand on the coast of Alabama
[Verse 4]
Mansion right there, that's where he lived
The governor won't be back
Get lost right here, that ocean salt hoping we'll be right back
[Verse 5]
I am a starfish washed upon the shore
Stuck in the sun's bloom just waiting to die
You are the strong tide pulling me back into sea
Now I can't wait to live again
[Verse 6]
If you die in a war, make sure it is worth it
Put your hand in the sand on the coast of Alabama
If you die in a war, make sure it is worth it
Put your hand in the sand on the coast of Alabama
If you die in a war, make sure it is worth it
Put your hand in the sand on the coast of Alabama
If you die in a war, make sure it is worth it
Put your hand in the sand on the coast of Alabama
