[G]
I woke up this morning, I had a scone and a large house blend.
Then a little [Am] conversation with my [C] squirrel and chipmunk [D] friends.
I [G] said I'm sick and tired of winter, and I wish that it was spring.
Then a little fella [Am] named Robin [C] Redbreast began to [D] sing.
[Eb] And he [Em] sang, ooh child, would you think that [Am] cold winter's gonna last forever?
[Em] Ooh child, now's the time for [Am] all the people to get [D] together
[C] outside.
Cause it's the first [G] of May, first of May, after [C] fucking [G] Saturday.
So [D] bring your favorite lady, [C] or at least your [G] favorite play.
[C] Water's not cold, [G] baby, dip in your big [D] pill.
Maybe I'll see you [G] in for grante de [C] licto.
Grass below [G] you, sky above.
Celebrate spring [C] with a crazy little thing called fucking [G] outside.
I thanked him for the information.
I cried a little when he blew away.
I watched an episode [Am] of the people's court, [C] and I tried to plan [D] my day.
[G] I called up my old lady, she wasn't home, so I called my girl.
[C] I asked her if she'd like [Am] to join me as [C] I entertain [D] the world.
[Eb] And I [Em] said, ooh child, I'll bring a blanket [Am] and I promise I will brush the ants off.
[Em] Ooh child, you're gonna like [Am] it when we're taking each [D] other's pants off [E] outside.
Cause it's the [G] first of May, first of May, after fucking Saturday.
