The taxman's taken all my dough (ooh-ooh-) And left me in my stately home (ooh-ooh-) Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
And I can't sail my yacht (ooh-ooh-), He's taken everything I got (ooh-ooh-), All I've got this sunny afternoon.
(Ooh-uh-uh-ooh-) Save me, save me, save me from this squee-eze, I got a big fat momma trying to bre-eak me. And I love to live so pleasantly, live this life of luxury {Lazing on a sunny afternoon in a summertime, In a summertime, in a summertime}.
My girlfriend's run off with my car (ooh-ooh-) And gone back to her ma and pa (ooh-ooh-) Tellin' tales of drunkenness and cruelty.
Now I'm sittin' here (ooh-ooh-) Sippin' out my ice-cool beer (ooh-ooh-), Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
(Ooh-uh-uh-ooh-) Help me, me help me, help me sail away. Well, give me two good reasons why I oughta stay. 'Cause I love to live so pleasantly, live this life of luxury {Lazing on a sunny afternoon in a summertime, In a summertime, in a summertime}.
(Ooh-uh-uh-ooh-) Ah, save me, save me, save me from this squee-eze, I got a big fat momma trying to bre-eak me. And I love to live so pleasantly, live this life of luxury {Lazing on a sunny afternoon in a summertime, In a summertime, in a summertime, In a summertime, in a summertime}.
