Lyrics:
INTRO:
15 seconds of ocean and seagull sound effects

VOCAL:
Well it’s white clouds
And blue skies
It’s clear tears
In green eyes
Baby’s oh so sad today
Because Daddy’s not home to play

We’ll throw stones in small pools
We’ll wear hats like big fools
Keep those tiny tears at bay
Till Daddy comes home today

Daddy’s gone to work my dear
So Mommy can stay here with you
But he’ll be missing us
And he’ll be kissing us
Real soon

Well it’s high time and low tide
It’s midday your world’s wide
We’ll pick some shells down in the bay
For when Daddy comes home today

We’ll build sandcastles in the hot sun
Drink cold juice have cool fun
See how we passed the time away
Now Daddy’s coming home

Fade out ocean sound effects for 17 seconds
