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 |
