Relaxing， splashing around in this pond

　　Can't think of anywhere else I'd rather be found

　　Too hot to work， just want to lie back and float

　　Feeling so cool， Hey watch out for that boat.

　　Soothing¹， refreshing² just having fun

　　Think I'll lie here until I say I'm done

　　Playing tag upon and under the water

　　Cooling off， it can't get much hotter

　　roll out those lazy hazy³ days of summer……

　　Back to floating and cooling down

　　When we play I feel just like a clown

　　Better take advantage of this summer

　　Autumn and winter can be a bummer

　　So I want to get in all my play

　　Soon skies will be filled with gray，

　　and autumn leaves will be falling around

　　Which will give us a different playground

　　"And God said， Let the earth bring forth⁴ the

　　living creature after his kind， cattle，

　　and creeping thing， and beast of the earth

　　after his kind： and it was so.

　　And God saw that it was good"
