the way the world's headed
Who knows what tomorrow will bring
If you believe what Al Gore tells us
The future sure looks frightening
L .C.'s trouble coming over the horizon
The forecast is hot and wet
With ice caps melting and oceans rising
I think I'll take an each way bet
I'm gonna build a beach house
Up above the high water line
Gonna build a beach house
With a cellar full of groceries and wine
I'm gonna be the new Noah
We'll party till the end of time
Up there in my beach house
It's been a while now since Mother Nature
has gone back to her roots
The time before it was the dinosaurs
that got too big for their boots
She's been monitoring the energy crisis
Figures everybody's had enough
She's gonna call your bluff
So I'm building me a beach house
To catch a little afternoon breeze
Up there in my beach house
It's cooler by a couple of degrees
To welcome all the refugees
Up there in my beach house
Stay as long as you please
I'm takin' me a tree change
Or maybe that's a sea change
Let's get through the century
I'm gonna build a beach house
Up above the high water line
Gonna build a beach house
I hope I get it ready in time
Gonna have my sailboat in the front yard
Set up with my fishing line
Up there in my beach house
Everything's gonna be fine
Up there in my beach house
Everything's gonna be fine
Yeah, everything's gonna be fine
