Metal Detector lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down at the shore, there's a place
Where there's no one vacationing
There's just the sound of the call of the wild
Overcoming the fear of the unknown

[Chorus]
And I've got something to help you understand
Something waiting there beneath the sand
My metal detector is with me all of the time
I'm the inspector over the mine

[Bridge]
Look past the volleyball
(Look past the ball)
Look past the squawking gull
(Look past the gull)
Ignore the mountain of discarded folderol

[Chorus]
'Cause I've got something to make you understand
Something hidden there underneath the land
My metal detector is with me all of the time
I'm the inspector over the mine
Metal detector, watch it shine
[Verse 2]
Every seashell has a story to tell, if you're listening
But underneath every shell, there's a story as well
If you've heard enough of the sea
Then everything on the top will just suddenly stop seeming interesting
So listen now to the sound of the things that are found underground

[Bridge]
Don't need no volleyball
(Don't need no volleyball)
Don't need no squawking gull
(Don't need no squawking gull)
Don't need to look at any bathing beauty doll
(Don't need to look at any doll)

[Chorus]
For I've got something to help you understand
Something waiting there beneath the sand
My metal detector is with me all of the time
I'm the inspector over the mine

[Bridge]
Look past the volleyball
(Look past the ball)
Look past the squawking gull
(Look past the gull)
Ignore the mountain of discarded folderol
[Chorus]
'Cause I've got something to make you understand
Something hidden there underneath the land
My metal detector is with me all of the time
I'm the inspector over the mine
Metal detector, watch it shine

[Outro]
Don't need no volleyball
(Don't need no volleyball)
Don't need no squawking gull
(Don't need no squawking gull)
Metal detector, all the time
(Metal detector all the time)
