Surf’s up
Surf’s Up (1971) – The Beach Boys
Aboard a tidal wave
Come about hard and join
The young and often spring you gave
I heard the word
Wonderful thing
A children’s song
歌曲Surf’s Up，由美國組合 The Beach Boys 在1971年唱出。歌曲長達4分11秒，類型屬於POP 流行樂，填詞作曲由 Van Dyke Parks 及組合成員 Brian Wilson，歌曲被收錄於同名專輯《Surf’s Up》。
雖然歌曲名稱叫 Surf’s Up，但歌詞與Surf衝浪沒有任何關係，一種文字遊戲。奇怪的是，歌詞是關於一位男人在演唱會時「靈魂覺醒」及更聽從上帝享受「覺悟」的歡樂，而歌曲的後半段則是一首兒歌風格。
歌曲被《Mojo》音樂雜誌評為組合最佳歌曲，更被 Pitchfork 音樂評論網站評為60、70年代200首最佳歌曲。
歌詞方面
填詞作曲由 Van Dyke Parks 及組合成員 Brian Wilson
A diamond necklace played the pawn
Hand in hand some drummed along, oh
To a handsome man and baton
A blind class aristocracy
Back through the opera glass you see
The pit and the pendulum drawn
Columinated ruins domino
Canvass the town and brush the backdrop
Are you sleeping?
Hung velvet overtaken me
Dim chandelier awaken me
To a song dissolved in the dawn
The music hall a costly bow
The music all is lost for now
To a muted trumpeter swan
Columinated ruins domino
Canvass the town and brush the backdrop
Are you sleeping, Brother John?
Dove nested towers the hour was
Strike the street quicksilver moon
Carriage across the fog
Two-Step to lamp lights cellar tune
The laughs come hard in Auld Lang Syne
The glass was raised, the fired rose
The fullness of the wine, the dim last toasting
While at port adieu or die
A choke of grief heart hardened I
Beyond belief a broken man too tough to cry
Surf’s up
Aboard a tidal wave
Come about hard and join
The young and often spring you gave
I heard the word
Wonderful thing
A children’s song
Child, child, child, child, child
A child is the father of the man
Child, child, child, child, child
A child is the father of the man
A children’s song
Have you listened as they played
Their song is love
And the children know the way
That’s why the child is the father to the man
Child, child, child, child, child
Child, child, child, child, child
Na na na na na na na na
Child, child, child, child, child
That’s why the child is the father to the man
Child, child, child, child, child
