Verse 1
They do it down on Camber Sands, they do it at Waikiki
Lazing about the beach all day, all night the crickets creepy
Squinting faces at the sky, a Harold Robbins paperback
Surfers drop their boards and dry, and everybody wants a hat
Chorus
But behind the chalet, my holi - day's complete
And I feel like William Tell
Maid Marion on her tiptoed feet
Pulling mussels from the shell,
Pulling mussels from the shell
Verse 2
Shrinking in the sea so cold, topless ladies look away
A he-man in a sunken shower, shelters from the rain
You wish you had a motor boat, to pose around the harbour bar
And when the sun goes out to bed, you hook it up behind the car
Chorus
But behind the chalet, my holi - day's complete
And I feel like William Tell
Maid Marion on her tiptoed feet
Pulling mussels from the shell,
Pulling mussels from the shell
Verse 3
Two fat ladies window shop, something for the mantelpiece
In for bingo all the nines, a panda for sweet little niece
The coach drivers stand about, looking at a local map
About the boy he's gone away, down to next door's caravan
Chorus
But behind the chalet, my holi - day's complete
And I feel like William Tell
Maid Marion on her tiptoed feet
Pulling mussels from the shell,
Pulling mussels from the shell
Pulling mussels from the shell
"The little man knows all ..."
