It's much too groovy a summer's day
To waste runnin' round in the city
But here on the sand I can dream away
Or look at the girls if they're pretty
Chorus:
It's a turn-down day
Nothin' on my mind
It's a turn-down day
And I dig it
There's nothing easier I can do
Than lyin' around doing nothing
[repeat chorus]
Soft summer breeze and the surf rolls in
To laughter of small children playin'
Someone's radio has the news tuned in
But nobody cares what he's sayin'
[repeat chorus]
Things that are waiting to mess my mind
Will just have to wait 'til tomorrow
[repeat chorus to fade]
