Malibu People Lyrics

I got a fine beach house, baby
And the waves roll in
Playing in the sand with your best friend babe
Malibu people really know how to live

A castle in the sand and a lady
And the waves roll in
Keep it in mind for some other time
Malibu people really know how to live

It took some time to find a crack in her defenses
A hole in her logic you might say
Keeping abreast of her, keeping things mended
All I know is that the waves roll in

Big belly woman laying in the sand waitin' for her baby
While the waves the roll in
If she needs a spot to drop, you know she's not forgotten
Where the waves roll in

All right...

A castle in the sand and a lady
And the waves roll in
Keep it in mind for some other time
Malibu people really know how to live
Big belly woman laying in the sand waitin' for her baby
While the waves the roll in (and the waves roll in)
If she needs a spot to drop, you know she's not forgotten
Where the waves roll in (Malibu people really know how to live)

This is the end

Genius Annotation

This album (and this song) is referencing some personal experiences. In this instance he’s singing about a girl who is pregnant (Waiting for her baby) and he’s suggesting coming to his beach house in Malibu to give birth. On this album, Phillips intentionally mixes a few euphemisms and slang terms that slightly obscure his lyrics meaning.
