Lazy Afternoon Songtext
von The Roots

Chorus
------

It′s a lazy afternoon
(summertime, as I recline, lay back and relax, let the sun shine)

Verse 1
-------

[black thought]

Consider this a message to my mellow in the front seat
Of the jeep pumpin' beats for your rump
In the summertime I′m risin' to the shine at 12: 20
Ghetto streets are sunny, niggas is gettin' money
It′s mad hot, and what I got to do I′m not sure of
I call up maura, this dip I know from bora bora
Was rappin' for a second about what I reckoned that i


Was doin′ at six, she was invitin' me to the flicks
That I′m with, blew a kiss now I'm in the shower
I meant the bath in which I simmer for half an hour
Then got drier, put on attire to inspire
Hit my dresser for numbers of women that I admire
Laid around and lounged ′til around two
Then I got up and ate, drank a brew and caught a page from the crew
Sayin' where ya at? later, meet us up at the plat
Bring a sack, ayo it's saturday, it′s gonna be fat
Now it′s 3: 37 and I still ain't left the rest
Electric relaxation from a tribe called quest
With the boom, tokin′, smokin', coolin′ out
As I parlay in my room 'cause it′s a lazy afternoon
