Karen rises early, runs brushes through her hair.

Then she buys the paper, I lay on my back,

Then she feeds the monkey, then she feeds the cat.

Chorus:

I'll talk, I'll talk they live by the sea

Surrounded by a cemetery.

If you get tired come up for some tea

With Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, and me.

Frances is the next to rise
|
Powders up her nose.
|
She's working for the tailor
|
Makes the western clothes.
|
Andy drives a sports car
|
To the Warner Brothers ghost
|
He used to live in England
|
Now he loves the coast (chorus)
|
|
Some times a friend comes by
|
To sing the latest song,
|
But David fights with Susan
|
Nobody gets along.
|
Every other Sunday
|
It's time to make a call.
|
Judy has a barbecue
|
Play the volleyball. (chorus)
|
|
In the evening When the sun goes down
|
The streets are all aglow.
|
We walk out on the hillside
|
City shines below.
|
We sit down for our supper
|
The news begins to play.
|
Walter he is speechless
|
Eric speaks cliches. (chorus)
|
|
Andy plays a cricket game.
|
Frances holds a glass.
|
Karen reads and darns a dress.
|
I dream of the past.
|
Dark is spreading up now
|
Good evening, good night.
|
Karen turns the bed sheet.
|
She's turning out the light. (chorus)
