Paroles de Clouds Like Islands

Pine forests Clouds like islands Spanish boys on mopeds Vodka shots and charcoal fires Palm trees Heat on the asphalt Larks and lizards and wasps in the grass Asleep in the dunes and empty pools Old men in old village squares Forever playing cards Pickpockets and Burger King Empty beaches Skinny dipping Short dresses Widows on benches Girls spending their time watching the lifeguards All-day hitchhiking Beach music and bodysurfing Open car windows and fights in bars All for one and one for all Stray dogs Fans turning All dressed up for the dance Getting dry with sandy towels Sunglasses and cigarettes Stealing food from empty tables Every day like the rest but no day like the last
