    Lyrics
    Charlie don't surf and we think he should
    Charlie don't surf and you know that it ain't no good
    Charlie don't surf for his hamburger momma
    Charlie's gonna be a napalm star
    Everybody wants to rule the world
    Must be something we get from girls
    One truth is we never learn
    Satellites will make space burn
    We've been told to keep the strangers out
    We don't like them starting to hang around
    We don't like them all over town
    Across the world we are going to blow them down
    Charlie don't surf and we think he should
    Charlie don't surf and you know that it ain't no good
    Charlie don't surf for his hamburger momma
    Charlie's gonna be a napalm star
    The reign of the super powers must be over
    So many armies can't free the earth
    Soon the rock will roll over
    Africa is choking on their Coca Cola
    It's a one a way street in a one horse town
    One way people starting to brag around
    You can laugh, put them down
    These one way people gonna blow us down, 'coz
    Charlie don't surf and we think he should
    Charlie don't surf and you know that it ain't no good
    Charlie don't surf for his hamburger momma
    Charlie's gonna be a napalm star
    Charlie don't surf he'll never learn
    Charlie don't surf though he's got a gun
    Charlie don't surf think that he should
    Charlie don't surf we really think that he should
    Charlie don't surf, Charlie don't surf
    Charlie don't surf and we think he should
    Charlie don't surf and you know that it ain't no good
    Charlie don't surf for his hamburger momma
    Charlie don't surf
    Charlie don't surf and we think he should
    Charlie don't surf and you know that it ain't no good
    Charlie don't surf for his hamburger momma
    Charlie's don't surf

    I remember hearing The Clash for the first time in my isolate Northern town. I went out the next day, bought the double album London Calling and cut my hair like Joe Strummer. I bought this triple album at the same store a couple years later. It still holds up 4 decades later. The only band that matters.

    Toppers 50s early Rock on Roll kick on this Track is what makes it. Topper the Human Drum Machine. It's reminiscent of a sort of buddy Holly vibe with the way Topper kicks that beat with the others falling in. Very visual.
