Staying home on such a beautiful day
Is something bummin' your scene?
There's something wrong, there's something wrong
Like waking up from a real bad dream
The air is sweet, the summer flower's bloomin'
"Yeah, August 8th is a beautiful day"
Feelings of joy are healing the street
Yeah, August 8th came right when it should
There's something wrong, there's something wrong
Yeah, August 8th is a beautiful day

What's goin' on, what's goin' on?
I see a bunch of hippies crying
What's goin' on, what's goin' on?
Nowhere inside is there anything gray

Is something bummin' your scene?

Yeah, August 8th is a beautiful day
I'm not trying to be mean

There's been no permanent damage done
Suddenly everything's looking good
Suddenly everything is okay

The storm has passed, the sun is shining
Like waking up from a fucked up dream

Poor Jeff, poor little Timmy Turtle
I'm not trying to be mean
