Surf's up, surf's up!
Surf's up, surf's up!
Look at that man look at his tan
He's lyin on the beach
He's layin in the sand surf's up!
Hey, can I borrow your Coppertone?
Oooh, rub it on my back
We'll have a party beach blanket party
We're gonna have a party tonight
On the beach on the beach
Look at that man! Look at his beach ball
It's four different colors
Hey, let's play volleyball
Surf's up! Surf's up!
Let's bake clams let's drink pink lemonade
We'll have a party beach blanket party
We're gonna have a party tonight
On the beach on the beach

Love this song. One of my favorite movies, too. I watch the beginning of the movie just to hear the song. What year did they actually record the song?
@jeffreysnow2640
I am thinking 1983
