[Verse 1]

A-wouldn't it be nice

To get on with me neighbours?

But they make it very clear

They've got no room for ravers


[Pre-Chorus]

They stop me from groovin'

They bang on me wall (What's going on in there?)

They're doin' me crust in

It's no good at all, ah


[Chorus]

Lazy Sunday afternoon

I've got no mind to worry

A-close my eyes and drift away


[Instrumental Break]


[Verse 2]

Here we all are, sittin' in a rainbow

Gor blimey! Hello, Mrs. Jones

How's your old Bert's lumbago?

He mustn't grumble


[Pre-Chorus]

(Tweedle-dee bite) I'll sing you a song

With no words and no tune

(Tweedle-dee bite) To sing on your khazi

While you suss out the moon, oh yeah


[Chorus]

Lazy Sunday afternoon

I've got no mind to worry

Close my eyes and drift away, yeah


[Instrumental Break]


[Verse 3]

A-roo-dee-doo-dee-doo

A-roo-dee-doo-dee-die-day

A-roo-dee-doo-dee-dum

A-roo-dee-doo-dee-doo-dee


[Pre-Chorus]

There's no one to hear me

There's nothin' to say

And no one can stop me

From feeling this way, yeah


[Chorus]

Lazy Sunday afternoon

I've got no mind to worry

Close my eyes and drift away


[Instrumental Break]


[Chorus]

Lazy Sunday afternoon

I've got no mind to worry


[Outro]

Close my eyes and drift a—

Close my mind and drift away

Close my eyes and drift away
