Sunny Afternoon
2
By: Ray Davies
3
1966
4
The taxman's taken' all my dough
5
And left me in this stately home
6
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon
7
And I can't even sail my yacht
8
He's taken' everything I've got
9
All I've got's this sunny afternoon
10
In the summertime...
11
Chorus:
12
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
13
I've got a big fat momma tryin' to break me
14
And I love to live so pleasantly
15
Live this life of luxury
16
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon
17
In the summertime...
18
My girlfriend's run off with my car
19
And gone back to her ma and pa
20
Tellin' tales of parrotheads and parties
21
And now I'm just sitting here
22
Sippin' on this ice-cold beer
23
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon
24
In the summertime...
25
Help me, help me, help me sail away
26
Well, give me two good reason why I ought to stay
27
'Cause I love to live so pleasantly
28
Live this life of luxury
29
Lazy on a sunny afternoon
30
In the summertime...
31
In the summertime...
32
In the summertime...
33
Chorus:
34
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
35
I've got a big fat momma tryin' to break me
36
And I love to live so pleasantly
37
Live this life of luxury
38
Lazy on a sunny afternoon
39
In the summertime...
40
In the summertime...
41
In the summertime...
42
In the summertime...
43
Taxman's taken' all my dough (in the summertime)
44
Gonna find that passport and outta here I go
45
(in the summertime)
46
--Spoken:
47
"Catch me a flight to St. Somewhere and get out of this cold
48
weather. Go somewhere where no body knows my name
49
Gotta keep my mouth shut. Try to go to confession at least once
50
a week. Somewhere preferably south of the equator, I believe.
51
Where it's summertime, where winter spends the summer. Somewhere
52
like that."
53
(in the summertime...)
