Sun
All our dreams are dreams of fun
Handing out the water gun
Shoot me and I'll drink you
Into the shade I'll shrink you
Finally we're done and stare up into the

Sky
Flat on our backs we lie
In quicksand slowly my hand
Flies up and away with the yellow bird driven by

Wind
I think I'll come to sin
With all this heaty windy skin
Around my neck and what glory
The sand in my pants reminds me of Doreen

Sand
We cannot fight getting tanned
All the limits banned
Into the night flight
Time's right no fight
There goes the sun into the the nightlife yeah

Whang I sing while the others swing
Like a beam of light through a bottle
Suzie swings, her phoney rings

Whang I sing while the others swing

Bugs crawling up our spine and the memory is mine
I'm a grain of sand in your hand so hand me mine yeah
That would be fine

Heat
I kiss the blisters on your feet a lizard's eye I greet
I'm afraid there's no aid 'til we get laid
Into the night flight time's right no fight

Whang I sing while the others swing
Like a beam of light through a bottle
Suzie swings, her phoney rings

Whang I sing while the others swing

Suzie swings, her phoney rings

Whang I sing while the others swing
Like a beam of light through a bottle

Around my neck
Mocking photography
Shocking in the sand with me
Sand in my pants

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bananafishbones's "Come To Sin" suggest a story of a group of people spending time on the beach, enjoying the sun and heat, and perhaps indulging in some sinful behavior. The first verse is about shooting each other with water guns, and when someone is "shot," they are shrunk into the shade. The second verse has the group lying flat on their backs, sinking into quicksand, while one person's hand flies away with a yellow bird carried by the wind. The third verse has the singer contemplating sinful behavior, referencing the heat and wind around their neck, and the sand in their pants reminding them of Doreen. The fourth verse has the group watching the sunset and feeling bugs crawling up their spines. The final verse has the singer kissing blisters on someone's feet, greeting a lizard's eye, and admitting that the only aid they will receive is "getting laid."

Throughout the lyrics, there is a sense of carefree, playful indulgence in pleasures that might not be considered socially acceptable. The imagery is colorful and vivid, conjuring up the sensory experience of being on the beach. While there is the suggestion of consequences for their actions, such as sinking into quicksand or feeling bugs, the overall tone is one of enjoyment and freedom.
