Lazing On A Sunday Afternoon

Queen · The Crown Jewels [1998]

I go off to work on monday morning

tuesday I go off to honeymoon

I'll be back again before its time for sunny down

I'll be lazing on a sunday afternoon



bicycling on every wednesday evening

thursday I go waltzing to the zoo

I come from london town im just an ordinary guy

fridays I go painting in the Louvre



I'm bound to be proposing on a saturday night

I'll be lazing on a sunday afternoon

Lazing On A Sunday Afternoon

Queen's 'Lazing On A Sunday Afternoon' stands as a quintessential example of the band's ability to blend theatrical flair with relaxed, acoustic sensibilities. Recorded during the 'The Game' era, the track features Freddie Mercury's signature falsetto and intricate guitar work, showcasing the group's versatility beyond their heavier rock anthems. Released on the 1998 compilation 'The Crown Jewels', the song captures a carefree, laid-back atmosphere that reflects the band's enduring appeal across generations. Its inclusion in various collector's editions highlights its status as a staple in Queen's discography, offering listeners a glimpse into their softer, more melodic side while maintaining the band's distinct theatrical identity.
