"Off The Beach" lyrics - WIRE

WIRE
"Off The Beach"

People standing, greeting, talking
People kissing, missing, whistling

Have you ever been
Washed off the beach?
Have you ever been
Swept out of reach?

People walking, stalking, hawking
Vehicles parking, dogs are barking

People shopping, buying, selling
People smoking, joking, hoping

People praying, disappearing
Cc. cameras, knives and hammers

People sleeping, broken, beaten
People lying, homeless, dying
