|
It's ten a.m. and I just woke up |
|
Walked to the window and opened the shades up |
|
Sun so bright that I can hardly see |
|
but I'm a black man so I pass on a tan |
|
dip to the bathroom take me a shower |
|
but first called up my girl told her be ready in an hour |
|
I was still a bit tired man I'm laggin' |
|
grabbed the tooth brush to kil the dragon |
|
ooh have mercy great day in the morning |
|
turn on the water and I'm stretchin' and yawnin' |
|
tryin' to get a blend to the hot winter cold |
|
man I'm young but why I feel so old |
|
get it just right then step to the mirror |
|
rubbin' my eyes to make my vision get clearer |
|
everything looks a-o.k |
|
and today is gonna be a lovely day |
|
Chorus: |
|
(a lovely day) lovely day lovely day lovely day lovely daze (lovely daze) X 2 |
|
So I jet out the crib and hop in the benzo |
|
today is my girls day can't none of my friends go |
|
just me and her top down on the highway |
|
if you're gonna do it then why not do it the fly way |
|
first a car wash next the barber shop |
|
then off to my girls crib that's my next stop |
|
a dozen roses a card and candy |
|
I'm a true mackadocious Mr. Romanty |
|
she hoped in and she asked where we're goin' |
|
yo we like a twig in the nile we just flowin' |
|
maybe to the beach or maybe hook up a picnic |
|
but yo it doesn't matter cause today we just kickin' it |
|
I threw in my homemade slow tape |
|
and off to the beach for some beautiful landscape man |
|
this is a bonafide lovers delight |
|
got the ocean on the left the mountains on the right |
|
I said yeah cause that's the way I was feelin' |
|
free as a bird got the clouds for a ceiling |
|
I wish that I could press the gas and fly away |
|
today has been a lovely day |
|
chorus |
|
it's dark outside now and it's gettin' kinda late |
|
the date was great but here comes the moment that I hate |
|
it's too bad a lovely day has gotta end up like this |
|
a wave goodbye with a hug and good night kiss |
|
mmmm I said good night my lovely I said mmmm good night my lovely |
|
she said what you gonna leave me all alone |
|
oh I forgot to tell you there ain't nobody home |
|
now y'all know me I'm a real cool guy but inside things was kinda like the fourth of July |
|
I walked inside I said hello there miss |
|
then she gave me a kiss oh you want some of this |
|
unh passion building mentally bonding |
|
slowly I caress her and she's respondin' |
|
just close your eyes and keep thinkin' of me |
|
here I come girl |
|
mmm lovely |
|
chorus |
