Skateboard - Stephen & the Strangers

I’m on a skateboard

I fall on my face

I cannot help it

How can I face you

Now that I’m back

Oh, I’m back

Yes, I’m back

I’m feeling sunburned

I’m smelling chlorine

I won’t swim and

Floating’s boring

I’m back

Oh, I’m back

Yes, I’m back

I won’t play music;

I won’t make any noise

No sideways glances made, like some other boys

No reason left to let me do what I can

And I won’t ever turn around

No, I won’t ever turn around again

I’m on a skateboard

I fall on my face

I cannot help it

How can I face you

Now that I’m back

Oh, I’m back

Yes, I’m back

I’m not a card cheat

I never play it

I cannot hold my hands still

They’re shakin'

Since I’m back

Oh, I’m back

Yes, I’m back

It’s not an article of faith

It’s not just something I can take

I can’t just close my eyes and feel the same

Yeah!

I’m on a skateboard

I cannot help it

I fall on my face

But falling is selfish

I’m back

Oh, I’m back

Yes, I’m back
