Surf's Up

by Darling Fitch

/

lyrics

Have you seen the picture?

Marilyn Monroe with a bow and arrow

You could really trust her

She knew what she was doing



I want to speak over everyone who called me a poet

Because they thought I was quiet

That’s not why it happened

You idiots



She knew what she was doing and she knew what was coming

She wasn’t a stupid girl

She fought for a painful place in the world

and drowned when she got her fill because that’s the only way she’d be allowed to shine at all

It was that or let the world take her without even singing her a song

Without even saying hello let alone goodbye



And I'm not shy I just don’t like you

But I'm going to keep on doing this thing I have to do because I’ll be damned if I let someone as stupid as you shut me up



Anyway there she was

The most beautiful dead girl in the world

Standing there in a bikini on the beach

In Los Angeles

Practicing archery with a man taking pictures of her perfect curls

I bet she said Surf’s up

I bet she said Don’t touch



I bet she said surfs up

I bet she said don’t touch
