Intro: There's no surf in Cleveland U.S.A.



If you want to see tinsel and stars just go to LA

To ride a subway car try New York way

Well you can go to Philly amytime

If the Liberty Bell rings your chime

But we're all here in Cleveland, Ohio

And that ain't bad brother don't you know

Cause there's a party every night

And dancing till the morning light

There's such a lot to do



REFRAIN



Well we can cruise through the rapids(1) all day long

(day long day long day long)

And we can dance to the music all night long

(night long night long night long)

Now we can't shine down our woody

Or drive a board around all day

And man we can't impress the girls on the beach

The way they do out in LA

Cause there's no surf in Cleveland

There's just no surf in Cleveland U.S.A.



From east and west and all around the town

We're a-ok don't let them put you down

The buzzard's(2) singing with the (chip up and down ??)

So clap your hands to the radio sound

Come on and sing along



REFRAIN sung twice



Fade out singing "no surf no surf we don't care" over and over
