A new one by Michael Rosen (who some of you will know from Sidmouth).

The Beach On The Med
Michael Rosen

The beach on the Med is soft and sandy
The airport nearby is cheap and handy
The clouds in the sky are far and few
It’s cocktails time in a room with a view

It’s always good to have ideas and plans
and no one here has blood on their hands

There are pics of old Gaza on the hotel wall
we bought an Arab rug in the shopping mall
we came out here for a wedding celebration
What we see is quality regeneration.

It’s always good to have ideas and plans
and no one here has blood on their hands

The people here are doing things properly
I myself deal with land and property
I reckon this place is gonna be great
for people like me who are in real estate.

It’s always good to have ideas and plans
and no one here has blood on their hands.

If you buy right now, you’ll make a killing
Out at sea, they’re gonna start drilling
The clouds in the sky are far and few
It’s time for cocktails in a room with a view

It’s always good to have ideas and plans
and no one here has blood on their hands.
