lyrics
birds sing, there's not a cloud in the sky
august 8th is such a beautiful day
i see a bunch of hippies crying yeah august 8th is a beautiful day
like waking up from a real bad dream, suddenly everything is ok
the storm has passed, the sun is shining
yeah august 8th is such a beautiful day
what's goin' on, what's goin' on, is something bummin your scene
there's something wrong, there's something wrong
i'm not tryin' to be mean
the air's sweet, the summer flowers bloomin',
nowhere in sight is anything grey
feelings of joy are filling the street, yeah beautiful day
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
