The Ocean Lyrics

Artist: Velvet Underground
Album: VU

1969 Live Version
--------------------------------------------

Here comes the Ocean
And the waves down by the shore
Here comes the Ocean
And the waves down by the sea
Earth is a hollow hair bought of a bigger head
It nearly drives me crazy
I am a lazy son
I never get things down
...(Unknown)

But here comes the waves
Down by the shore
Washing the eye of the land
That has been down by the sea
Down by the sea
Down by the sea
Down by the sea

Here comes the ocean and the waves
Down by the shore
Here comes the ocean and the waves
Down by the sea

(Incense or In sex or Insects) for evil thoughts, thought of by selfish men
It nearly drives me crazy
I am a lazy son
I never get things done
...(Unknown)

Here comes the waves down by the shore
Washing the eye of the land that has been down by the sea
Down by the sea

Here come the waves
Here come the waves
Here come the waves

Peel Slowly And See Version
---------------------------------------------

Here comes the ocean
And the waves
Down by the sea
Here comes the Ocean
And the waves
Where have they been?

Silver and black with night
Heres to a summers night
An empty splendid castle
Glowering alone at night
The princess has had a fright
Madness seeks out the lover

And here come the waves down by the shore
Washing the soul of the body
That comes from the depths of the sea

Here comes the ocean
and the waves down by the sea
Here comes the ocean
and the waves, where have they been
Don't swim tonight my love
The tide is out my love
Malcom's curse haunts our family
Oh yes, loud in which, ruler of filthy seas, revelling heavans justice

And here come the waves
And save for a scream
Theres much like a song
To be heard, in the wind, that blows by the sea.

Like the wind

Here come the waves,
Here come the waves,
Here come the waves
