Analysis
Song Analysis
I have to sit,
For six hours of this
And every single minute of this
For me is time wasted
And if I had to be perfectly honest
I could think of tons of things
That are better than school,
But one thing comes to the top.
I don't want to work,
I just want to surf
In the waves all day
I don't want to play,
I just want to surf
In the waves all day
But even if the waves
Are kinda sub-par
I can always find
Some surf
on another far shore
I don't want to work,
I just want to surf
In the waves all day
I don't want to play
I just want to surf
In the waves all day
Surfing has become a big part of my life ever since my dad decided to teach me, back when I was about 6. Back then, I never enjoyed it one bit. But my dad always wanted me to go out with him, and I began to see the fun of it all. I had only used a huge 12'0 board, which I could barely carry and was hard to paddle. After I got a little better, my dad kept giving me shorter and shorter boards. The short boards today let you surf much better than in the old days. When you catch a wave on a short board, you gain so much speed that you can do insane maneuvers.
My song reflects my love for surfing, so much so that I would rather not go to school if there was good surf. I express a desire that I would rather go surfing than play, which is kind of like playing, but not in a amusing sense. Surfing is really hard on the back, because you have to keep your whole upper body above the water. You also have to have good arm strength, because you need to keep paddling through the breaking waves or else you might get stuck underwater and drown.
I also said in my song that if there aren't waves where I am, I can always go to the north or east or west shores to find surf. Sometimes it becomes an adventure, like if you run out of cash and you need to eat something. Me and my dad have even done kitchen work for half of an hour just to get a couple burgers.
To wrap it all up, I love to surf and my song reflects that. I just wanted to show how much I liked it, and that surfing while maybe not most important, comes before a lot of things in the fun department.
