Sunny Afternoon

Ray Davies

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 everything I 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
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon

In summertime in summertime
In summertime

(My) girlfriend's gone off with my car
And gone back to her ma and pa
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty
Now I'm sittin' here
Sipping at my ice cold 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
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon

In summertime in summertime
In summertime
