Taking It In

[Verse 1]

Morning, sing me a song

Afternoon, bring it along

Nighttime, show me a friend, say it again

Send a good dream my way

[Verse 2]

Wednesday, feeling just fine

I got to say time on my hands

Friday, look at them run, show me some fun

Taking the sunshine in

[Chorus]

God knows you've got to give yourself time to think these days

Lord knows you've got to take enough time to look both ways

The pieces fly by so quickly now

[Verse 3]

Laura, look at you walk

I swear you've got eyes in my head

I'd like to follow you down, show you around

Borrow the crown you wear

[Verse 4]

Bacon, lie on that plate

The black-eyed peas wait on the side

Gravy, chicken and rice, isn't it nice?

Tell me the price of food

[Chorus]

What happens when the answers they give you aren't good enough, baby, no?

What happens when it rains for eight days on your week off?

You know you can't buy tomorrow, no

[Outro]

It's all a matter of opening up your eyes

And looking around

'Cause it's all there

Yeah, baby, said it's all there

I said taking the sunshine in

Yeah, yeah, whoa, baby, yeah
