Intro 2x:The taxman's taken all my doughAnd left me in my stately homeLazin' on a sunny afternoonAnd I can't sail my yachtHe's taken everything I've gotAll I've got's this sunny afternoonSave me, save me, save me from this squeezeI got a big fat mama tryin' to break meAnd I love to live so pleasantlyLive this life of luxuryLazin' on a sunny afternoonIn the summertimeMy girlfriend's run off with my carAnd gone back to her ma and paTellin' tales of drunkenness and crueltyNow I'm sittin' hereSippin' at my ice-cooled beerLazin' on a sunny afternoonHelp me, help me, help me sail awayOr give me two good reasons why I oughta stay'Cause I love to live so pleasantlyLive this life of luxuryLazin' on a sunny afternoonIn the summertime
