Can someone get the lyrics for this? I always loved this song, loved the deadpan lyrics, the tongue in cheek singing. The cool thing is Martha and the Muffins ahd other good songs too. I love the line my job is very boring I'm an office clerk.

One of my first mp3 downloads!
I know it's out of fashion And a trifle uncool But I can't help it I'm a romantic fool It's a habit of mine To watch the sun go down On Echo beach, I watch the sun go down
From nine till five I have to spend my time at work The job is very boring, I'm an office clerk The only thing that helps pass the time away Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach some day
On a silent summer evening The sky's alive with light Building in the distance Surrealistic sight On Echo Beach Waves make the only sound On Echo Beach There's not a soul around
From nine till five I have to spend my time at work The job is very boring, I'm an office clerk The only thing that helps pass the time away Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach some day
Echo Beach Far away in time Echo Beach Far away in time

Thanks LS for the lyrics, thinking of doing a loose cover as I figured out the intro recently.
