Sitting in the Midday Sun |
I’m sitting by the side of a river |
Underneath the pale blue sky |
I’ve got no need to worry, I’m in no hurry |
I’m looking at the world go by |
Just sitting in the midday sun |
Just soaking up that currant bun |
With no particular purpose or reason |
Sitting in the midday sun |
Everybody say I’m lazy |
They all tell me get a job you slob |
I’d rather be a hobo walking round with nothing |
Than a rich man scared of losing all he’s got |
So I’m just sitting in the midday sun |
Just soaking up that currant bun |
Why should I have to give my reasons |
For sitting in the midday sun |
Oh look at all the ladies |
Looking their best in their summer dresses |
Oh sitting in the sun |
I’ve got no home |
I’ve got no money |
But who needs a job when it’s sunny. |
Wah Wah |
I haven’t got a steady occupation |
And I can’t afford a telephone |
I haven’t got a stereo, radio or video |
A mortgage, overdraft, or a bank loan |
The only way that I can get my fun |
Is by sitting in the midday sun |
With no particular purpose or reason |
Sitting in the midday sun |
Oh listen to the people who |
Say I’m a failure and I’ve got nothing |
Ah but if they would only see |
I’ve got my pride |
I’ve got no money |
But who needs a job when it’s sunny. |
Wah Wah |
Everybody thinks I’m crazy |
And everybody says I’m dumb |
But when I see the people shouting at each other |
I’d rather be an out of work bum |
So I’m just sitting in the midday sun |
Just soaking up that currant bun |
With no particular purpose or reason |
Sitting in the midday sun |
