Nonsense Song

by Stimson and Temple

Everybody's talkin' 'bout love.
People don't know what they're thinkin' of.
Everyone's thinkin' 'bout life.
Nobody knows, but it's husband and wife.
Day-be-de-bay-be-day-pe-de-day
Day-be-de-bay-be-day-pe-de-day

Nobody knows what they do.
Me, I'm just thinkin' 'bout me and you.
It's hard with the words in the way
Singin' the nonsense song every day.

Everybody's having a good time
Kicking up their feet in the sunshine, yeah.

INST LINK, w/bland & reg music
Everybody's having a party.
If you can party, then make it hardy.
What if it's right or wrong?
Sitting there singing a nonsense song.

Everybody's having a good time
Kicking up their feet in the sunshine, yeah.

((drum solo, picks up earlier beat))

Now we're up and playing the game.
Nobody knows, but it's all the same.
What if it's right or wrong?
Sitting here singing the nonsense song.

Everybody's having a good time
Kicking up their feet in the sunshine, yeah.

Day-pededay-pededay-pededay
Pededay-pededay-pededay... ((FADE))

FALSE ENDING, then INST CODA.
