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
