Develop a Device
Develop A Device
So where have our precious boys been?
Out to sea over and over again and again
That seems to be custom they all do here
Being that sea and beach are nice and near.
What if a storm were to appear one day
Should stay on Intracoastal Water Way
Which is when you can be safe and sound
Shore is easily seen and readily found.
Tiny cell phones have become used to
And on us this habit grew and grew
Along with satellites high in the sky
Look up at right time and see it pass by.
Would think with all these modern things
Safety, sanity and security always brings
And no matter how much they may cost
Would never have any fear of being lost.
But this their time luck ran out and it did
Those two boys who were like a little kid
Are no where for any of us to be found
After having looked and looked all around.
So sure seems to me it could be nice
If in some way we have developed a device
That is full-proof and certain to you and me
Guarantee none of us are ever lost at sea.
