Magic Beach Hut
The magic beach hut along the bay
Transports you to a hot summer’s day
Seeking shelter from a snowstorm
Some place dry to keep you warm
Close your eyes to wish for the sun
Count to three and you shall have fun
Build sandcastles and dig for treasure
Ball games of plenty at your leisure
Sunshine all day will fill you with glee
Surf the waves in the clear blue sea
Tallest Ferris wheel at the funfair
Tasty sweet treats for all to share
Lather up with coconut sun cream
Lashings of delicious ice-cream
Escape winter blues at the seashore
Enjoy summer holidays once more
Transports you to a hot summer’s day
Seeking shelter from a snowstorm
Some place dry to keep you warm
Close your eyes to wish for the sun
Count to three and you shall have fun
Build sandcastles and dig for treasure
Ball games of plenty at your leisure
Sunshine all day will fill you with glee
Surf the waves in the clear blue sea
Tallest Ferris wheel at the funfair
Tasty sweet treats for all to share
Lather up with coconut sun cream
Lashings of delicious ice-cream
Escape winter blues at the seashore
Enjoy summer holidays once more
