Sunny Afternoon

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've got

All I've got's this sunny afternoon



Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze

I got a big fat mama trying 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 ice cold beer

All I've got's this sunny afternoon



Help me, help me, help me sail away

Well 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



Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze

I got a big fat mama trying 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
