The good wave is the most rare and precious thing we have
Lasts for an instant
Blinks like a sparkle
It's as powerful as an avalanche
It's so fragile that it can be killed by a laugh

Oh, I forever want to ride this perfect wave
Oh, I'm gonna ride it until the end of days
Now that we've seen it all it's so rare to be excited by anything
Defend the good wave, worship enthusiasm and venerate the shake that it gives

This energy won't last
They say
Son, step by step
If you burn it all now, soon nothing will be left

Step by step, this way
When my time comes, I will be no more fresh
Won't have any new plan or any passion left
I'll only become an old man filled with regret

Oh, to everyone riding this perfect wave
No, don't let them spoil our glorious day
Now that we've seen it all it's so rare to be excited by anything
Defend the good wave, worship enthusiasm and venerate the shake that it gives
Drawing on your wealth of experience
You think everyone is designed to follow a precise way
Just because others before have done so, doesn't mean
It is right that everybody should follow the lead blindly
But people are extraordinary in their virtues and vices a
Nd you flatten them into mediocrity, applying rules forged in a sterile logic
You call it equilbrium, equality, justice, but you forget
All man are equal, only six feet under

Yeah, forever want to ride this perfect wave
Yeah, it's our glorious ordinary day
Now that we've seen it all it's so rare to be excited by anything
Defend the good wave, worship enthusiasm and venerate the shake that it gives
