Christi Warner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Chorus:
Summer time ? Mummy?s in the kitchen
Baking and making lemon juice
Summer time ? Daddy?s in the backyard
Aha aha ? kids are playing in the pool
Aha aha ? Uncle Bob?s so drunk again
Verse One
Beautiful, grand wide open skies
Beautiful sunny days that are meant for playing
I love the season that brings my family together
Makes everything look so together
This season, and my family
Together makes good comedy for TV (hey)
Drunk again, drunk again, drunk again
Uncle Bob is?
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
It cools you down in?
Chorus:
Summer time ? Mummy?s in the kitchen
Baking and making lemon juice
Summer time ? Daddy?s in the backyard
Working on a feast of barbeque
Aha aha ? kids are playing in the pool
Aha aha ? Uncle Bob?s so drunk again
Verse Two
Colourful and grand is the motto of the day
Sunny faces, people in love
Beauty is all over
I love summer dresses, and wearing sandals
Makes your feet wanna dance in circles
Talk about dancing, oh I love it when the
Music makes your body wanna look so cute and silly
Drunk again, drunk again, drunk again
Uncle Bob is?
Lemonade, lemonade, lemonade
It cools you down in?
