GREMMIE OUT OF CONTROL
vHaskell, Usherv

Every beach has a clown who thinks he knows it all
Hang-ten outta Santa Fe when surf comes out tomorrow lets go!
And he's always practicing his cowabunga call
Cowabunga!
But he'll never scramble when the big waves start to roll
Wsssshhhh ..
Cause there's nothing worse than a gremmie out of control
Gremmie out of control
There's nothing worse than a gremmie out of control
The kids always know that gremmie's talk is cheap
Ride the Hula-Han over the pipeline bonsai to the saddle bowl
Oh they just try to ignore this ugly creep
Cowabunga!
His board is always full of dings
Cause he's always doing stupid things
And there's nothing worse than a gremmie out of control
Gremmie out of control
There's nothing worse than a gremmie out of control
Gremmie out of control
There's nothing worse than a gremmie out of control
