Lyrics
Charlie don't surf and we think he should
Charlie don't surf, and you know that it ain't no good
Charlie don't surf for his hamburger mama
Charlie's gonna be a napalm star
Everybody wants to rule the world
It must be something we get from birth
One truth is we never learn
Satellites will make space burn
We've been told to keep the strangers out
We don't like 'em starting to hang around
We don't like 'em all over town
Across the world we're gonna blow 'em down
Charlie don't surf and we think he should
Charlie don't surf, and you know that it ain't no good
Charlie don't surf for his hamburger mama
Charlie's gonna be a napalm star
Reign of the super powers must be over
So many armies can't free the earth
Soon the rock will roll over
Africa is choking on their Coca-Cola
It's a one-way street in a one-horse town
One way people starting to brag around
You can laugh, put 'em down
These one way people gonna blow us down
'Cause Charlie don't surf and we think he should
Charlie don't surf, and you know that it ain't no good
Charlie don't surf for his hamburger mama
Charlie's gonna be a napalm star
Charlie don't surf, he'll never learn
Charlie don't surf though he's got a gun
Charlie don't surf, think that he should
Charlie don't surf, we really think that he should
Charlie don't surf, Charlie don't surf
Charlie don't surf and we think he should
Charlie don't surf, and you know that it ain't no good
Charlie don't surf for his hamburger mama
Charlie don't surf
Charlie don't surf and we think he should
Charlie don't surf, and you know that it ain't no good
Charlie don't surf for his hamburger mama
Charlie's don't surf
