It's you and me on a beach
In 1998
Leaning into the breeze
From the willows
And rhythm and grace are reborn in this place
I'm assured the procedure is painless
The taxicab with no brakes
Around the mountain pass
Keep your head in your hands
If anybody asks
What you mean when you were picking a fight
You were only complimenting the waitress
Chorus:
Give us a room with a mountain view
A tiny cabana by the water
Yeah, by the water
And I got a rental for an hour or two
For a ride up the coast and a dip in the ocean
The waterfront is alight
With citronella flame
Tourists flashing the night
From the grottoes
And gathering now on the heel-worn planks
For a drunken promenade or a mambo
And lovers paddle a boat
On the molten bay
Veering into the reeds
On a ripple
And playing it cool in a bar by the pool
With a Caribbean Kiss Amaretto
Chorus
Get a load of the light in the trees
And the sweet decay on the maritime breeze
The sun's hitching on a weather balloon
And the heat off the tarmac
Burning a hole in a gold afternoon
Give us a room with a mountain view
A tiny cabana by the water
Yeah, by the water
And I got a rental for an hour or two
And a bottle in a cooler
Maps and a big brown towel
It's a beater, but today will do
For a ride up the coast and a dip in the ocean
Fountains of Wayne are an American power-pop band formed in 1995 in New York. The group, consisting of Adam Schlesinger (vocals, guitar), Chris Collingwood (guitar, vocals), Jody Porter (bass) and Brian Young (drums), is known for their catchy pop-rock sound and often ironic and self-deprecating lyrics. Their biggest success was "Stacey's Mom", a single released in 2003 that reached number one on the US alternative charts and helped introduce the band to an international audience. Other notable tracks include "Red Tide" (from their debut album "Ugly Radio") and "Hackensack" (from the album "Welcome Interstate Managers"). Fountains of Wayne have released six studio albums, achieving moderate commercial success and a solid fan base. Adam Schlesinger, besides being the frontman of the band, also worked as a composer for film and television, winning an Emmy Award in 2018 for the soundtrack of the series "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend". Schlesinger died in 2020 due to complications from COVID-19.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
