Lyrics

Verse 1
I know
Let’s have a picnic today
the sun is out so whaddaya say?
We’ll escape from the world
and you can be my girl
No need
To think of all the hurt and the pain
It’s no fun besides what can we gain?
We’ll pretend it’ll be alright
Such a wonderful sight!
Chorus 1
Life is so much better with our heads in the sand
no need for reality
That’s just fine with me
It’s just so easy when you don’t understand
and that’s all I have to say
It’s such a beautiful day!
Verse 2
Look now
at the clouds – they’re so far away
No need to worry about them today
We’re happy and carefree
I’m sure you’ll agree
We won’t let anybody else bring us down
No need to wear that frown
I don’t care what’s in the news
You won’t catch me singing the blues
Chorus 2
No responsibilities to get in the way
Nothing anyone can do
makes a difference to me or you
We won’t let difficulties ruin our day
You won't hear us whine
‘cause we’re feeling just fine
Instrumental
Chorus 2
Life is so much better with our heads in the clouds
no need for reality
That’s just fine with me
If I don’t have to see it
I don’t have to feel it
Ignorance is bliss for me
My oh my! Such a beautiful day!
Don’t let your fears and worries get in the way
I don’t give a damn about truth today
I just pretend it’s ok
