Daydream
Daydreams of Love and Sunshine: The Lovin' Spoonful's Melodic Escape
Lyrics
What a day for a daydream
Expressing the suitability of the day for daydreaming, suggesting a positive atmosphere.
What a day for a daydreamin' boy
Highlighting the ideal nature of the day for someone who enjoys daydreaming.
And I'm lost in a daydream
Indicating being deeply engrossed in a pleasant and imaginative thought.
Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy
Referring to thoughts about a beloved person, possibly a romantic partner or child.
And even if time ain't really on my side
Acknowledging that time may not be in favor, but still finding it a perfect day.
It's one of those days for takin' a walk outside
Suggesting the appropriateness of the day for outdoor activities like taking a walk.
I'm blowin' the day to take a walk in the sun
Choosing to spend the day outdoors, enjoying the sunshine.
And fall on my face on somebody's new mowed lawn
Humorous reference to stumbling or making a mistake, possibly in a playful context.
I've been havin' a sweet dream
Sharing the experience of a pleasant dream or fantasy.
I been dreamin' since I woke up today
Emphasizing the continuity of the dream from waking up until the present moment.
It's starrin' me and my sweet dream
Describing the dream, with a special focus on a significant person causing positive emotions.
'Cause she's the one that makes me feel this way
Attributing positive feelings to the mentioned person in the dream.
And even if time has passing me by a lot
Acknowledging the passage of time but expressing indifference towards its effects.
I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got
Disregarding any consequences or obligations associated with the passing time.
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for droppin' my load
Committing to addressing responsibilities in the future.
A pie in your face for bein' a sleepy bulltoad
Using humor to describe facing consequences, possibly in a light-hearted manner.
And you can be sure that if you're feelin' right
Asserting that a positive feeling or mood can extend well into the night.
A daydream will last along into the night
Encouraging a positive outlook, suggesting that daydreams can endure.
Tomorrow at breakfast you may pick up your ears
Anticipating a change in attention or focus the next day, possibly due to external stimuli.
Or you may be daydreamin' for a thousand years
Humorously suggesting the potential for prolonged daydreaming, perhaps exaggerating the concept of time.
What a day for a daydream
Reiterating the suitability of the day for daydreaming, mirroring the first line.
Custom made for a daydreamin' boy
Repeating the idea that the day is perfectly tailored for someone who enjoys daydreaming.
And now I'm lost in a daydream
Echoing the sentiment of being deeply immersed in a pleasant and imaginative thought.
Dreamin 'bout my bundle of joy
Revisiting thoughts about a beloved person, creating a circular structure in the lyrics.
