Sunny afternoon lyrics
by Kinks
The taxman's taken all my dough
And left me in my stately home
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
And I can't sail my yacht
He's taken ev'rything I've got
All I've got's this sunny afternoon
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I've got a big fat momma tryin' to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly, live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
My girlfriend's run off with my car
And gone back to her ma and pa
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty
Now I'm sitting here
Sipping at my icecold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
Help me, help me, help me sail away
You give me two good reasons why I ought to stay
'Cause I love to live so pleasantly, live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
Oh, save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I've got a big fat momma tryin' to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly, live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
