In the Park
Slumberlandband Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just sit thinking, drinkin' my tee
Looking at the people lookin' at me
On a sunny day in the park
On a sunny day in the park
There's mothers watching their children play
Oldich people dozing in the shade
On a sunny day in the park
On a sunny day in the park
In the park there's atill the sound of the city
The airplanes, motorways
The motor's so sheer today
The park can only take a little away
On a sunny day in the park
Yeah I'm blowing the joint of our humble lung
There's a girl with only her bikinis on (- whistle -)
And the guys up the bench, they're hangin' on (Tu tu tu tu tu tu tu tu hangin' on)
On a sunny day in the park
On a sunny day in the park
A lady lost her hat of her in the pool
She dives in the water, acts like a fool
Everyone's watchin' and keepin' it cool
On a sunny day in the park
On a sunny day in the park
In the park there's atill the sound of the city (In the park)
The airplanes, motorways
The motor's so sheer today
The park can only take a little away
On a sunny day in the park
(JOOST BELINFANTE)
