The taxman's taken all my dough
And left me in my stately home
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
And I can't sail my yacht
He's taken everything I've got
All I've got's this sunny afternoon
Save me, save me, save me from this queen
I got a big fat mama trying to break me
Although I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime, summertime, summertime
My girlfriend's gone off with my car
Gone off to her ma and pa's
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty
Now I'm sitting here
Sipping at my ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
Help me, help me, help me sail away
Give me two good reasons why I oughta stay
Because I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime, summertime, summertime
'Cause I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime, summertime, summertime, summertime
In the summertime, summertime, summertime, summertime
