Roller Coaster By the Sea - Jonathan Richman And The Modern Lovers, The Modern Lovers

You see I went on the roller coaster last night when I was feeling bad

Down by the sea in Santa Cruz and I was feeling sad

But we went down, and around, and it knocked me out of my head

Well, I went on the coaster and my heart was heavy as lead

But we went down, and around, and it knocked me out of my head

I say whoa-oh-oh, for it knocked me out of my head.

Let’s go…

Hey roller coaster by the sea, thank you for helping me

And roller coaster by the water, made me feel more as I oughtta

Well, you knocked me out of my head

See, I went on a roller coaster last night when I was feelin' bad

We were down by the sea in Santa Cruz, and I was sadder than sad

But we went down, and around, and it knocked me out of my head

Hey, when I went on the coaster, my heart was heavy as lead

But we went down, down, and around, and it knocked me out of my head

Well, it knocked me out of my head

Hey, roller coaster by the sea, thank you for helping me

Roller coaster by the water, you made me feel more as I oughtta

Yes, you knocked me out of my head
