The beach is a place where a man can feel   He's the only soul in the world that's real   But I see a face coming through the haze   I remember him from those crazy days   Crazy days, crazy days      Ain't you the guy who used to set the paces   Riding up in front of a hundred faces?   I don't suppose, you would remember me   But I used to follow you back in '63      I've got a good job and I'm newly born   You should see me, dressed up in my uniform   I work in a hotel, all gilt and flash   Remember the [Incomprehensible], where the doors we smashed?      Bell Boy! I've gotta get runnin' now   Bell Boy! Keep my lip buttoned down   Bell Boy! Carry this baggage out   Bell Boy! Always running at someone's [Incomprehensible] heel   You know how I feel   Always runnin' at someone's heel      Some nights I still sleep on the beach   Remember when stars were in reach   Then I wander in early to work   Spend my day lickin' boots for my perks      The beach is a place where a man can feel   He's the only soul in the world that's real   But I see a face, comin' through the haze   I remember him from those crazy days   Crazy days, crazy days, crazy days, crazy days      Ain't you the guy who used to set the paces   Riding up in front of a hundred faces?   I don't suppose you would remember me   But I used to follow you back in '63      People often change but when I look in your eyes   You could learn a lot, from a life like mine   The secret to me, it ain't flown like a flag   I carry it behind this pretty little badge, what says?      Bell Boy! I gotta get runnin' now   Bell Boy! Keep the lip buttoned down   Bell Boy! Carry the bloody baggage out   Bell Boy! Always runnin' at someone's heel   You know how I feel   Always runnin' at someone's heel
