Lyrics Lovely Day - Pere Ubu

Lovely Day

It’s a lovely day by the sea
Mr. Potato Head is strumming at guitar
Beggar on the bench is acting lewd and crude
Weekend Father’s got his kid out for a stroll
Wind turbines offshore are shredding the seagulls once more
So that’s good
It is as it should be
On a lovely day by the sea
Onions are frying
Chip wrappers are flying
Wind surfers are out pestering the fishing boats
Bongo Dredster is playing it just as good as white folks
New Age banners are slapping in the breeze
There’s a new flavor on the board at the Dairy Freeze
Mungo Jerry is nursing a cup of tea
Watching the joggers and unwed mothers promenade
Somebody must be lonely
But not that I can see
Somebody must be angry
But not that I can see
Something must be wrong
So that’s good
It is as it should be
On a lovely day by the sea
