August 8th

[Verse 1]

Birds sing, there's not a cloud in the sky

August 8th is a beautiful day

I see, a bunch of hippies crying

Yeah, August 8th is a beautiful day

[Verse 2]

Like waking up from a real bad dream

Suddenly everything is okay

The storm has passed, the sun is shining

Yeah, August 8th is a beautiful day

[Chorus]

What's going on, what's going on?

Is something bumming your scene?

There's something wrong, there's something wrong

I'm not trying to be mean

[Verse 3]

The air is sweet, the summer flowers blooming

Nowhere in sight is there anything gray

Feelings of joy are filling the street

Yeah, August 8th is a beautiful day

[Verse 4]

Like waking up from a fucked-up dream

Suddenly everything's looking good

There's been no permanent damage done

Yeah, August 8th came right when it should

[Chorus]

What's going on, what's going on?

Is something bumming your scene?

There's something wrong, there's something wrong

I'm not trying to be mean

[Outro]

Poor Jeff, poor little Timmy Turtle

Staying home on such a beautiful day
