Take Me to the Beach Lyrics
- Lyrics
- Meaning
[Verse 1]
People-pleasin' planet
Got a million people sayin' how to plan it
I can no longer stand it
Gonna spend my days tellin' them to can it
Each and to their own
Got a salesman ringin' my phone
Tell me where to go
No, I don't wanna hear the down low
[Pre-Chorus]
I owe, oh-oh-oh
Nothin', not a penny, never wanna hear you preach
No, oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
(Take-take-take-take) Take me to the beach
Ah-ah-ah, you could have the mountains
Ah-ah-ah, you take the snow
Ah-ah-ah, it's way too cold
My heart is cold enough
Ah-ah-ah, push comes to shove
Ah-ah-ah, you could have the mountains
Ah-ah-ah, I'll take the beach
[Verse 2]
If you want it, come and get it
Got a million people tellin' me they're with it
And they got me at my limit
And I'm tellin' you I never spare a minute
If you wanna keep on livin'
For the sucker that is tellin' you your limit
Gotta find out it's a gimmick
Can't nobody tell you how to live it
[Pre-Chorus]
I owe, oh-oh-oh
Nothin', not a penny, never walkin' on a leash
No, oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
(Take-take-take-take) Take me to the beach
Ah-ah-ah, you could have the mountains
Ah-ah-ah, you take the snow
Ah-ah-ah, it's way too cold
My heart is cold enough
Ah-ah-ah, push comes to shove
Ah-ah-ah, you could have the mountains
Ah-ah-ah, I'll take the beach
[Bridge]
I'm better off alone
Like a rollin' stone
Turnin' off my phone
No one bringin' me down, down, down, down
Just give me some space
That sun in my face
And the days go on, and on, and on, and on (T-A-K-E, T-A-K-E)
[Chorus]
T-A-K-E, take me to the beach (Oh)
Ah-ah-ah, you could have the mountains (Have the mountains)
Ah-ah-ah, you take the snow
Ah-ah-ah, it's way too cold (It's way too cold)
My heart is cold enough (Oh)
Ah-ah-ah, push comes to shove
Ah-ah-ah, you could have the mountains
Ah-ah-ah, I'll take the beach (I'll take the)
Take me to the (I'll take the)
[Outro]
I don't have no friends, ask anyone (Ahh)
Got me 'til the end, my favorite one (Take me to the beach; don't, I'll take the)
I don't have no friends, ask anyone (Ask anyone)
Got me 'til the end, my favorite one (Take me to the beach)
