Hey girl say hey
Say what a watcha say 
Hey girl say hey
Say what

The latest new is somewhat depressing 
The latest figures are a li'l bit distressing 
So what you say can we let it slide for a day darlin'
What you say

I get the word from Arthur my broker
He says "sell it all son and stick to poker"
So what you say if we let it slide for a day darlin'
What you say 

What's the big rush 
What's the big hurry 
We've all the time in the world for the worry 
We'll tell the world that we'll meet em on Sunday 
Then we don't show up until Monday, alright 

I don't sweat it that much as a rule
But lately it's been rough keeping cool
So hey what you say if we let it slide for a day darlin'
What you say 

The daily grind is getting me frantic 
'Cause I see myself as a laid-back romantic
So hey what you say if we let it slide for a day girl
Oh what you say
