Ya estoy aquí­ de nuevo. Y traigo una canción de uno de mis grupos preferidos, los Kinks, con la que intentar paliar el extremo bochorno estival que azota sin piedad el dí­a a dí­a de Madrid. Así­ que, a todos aquellos que aún no hemos podido escapar de vacaciones, os invito a deleitaros con el sentido del humor y frescura de los Kinks en voz del siempre simpático Ray Davies. Lo cual, no es como estar tumbado en el Caribe con un mojito en la mano, ciertamente. Pero menos da una piedra, ¿verdad? Jeje.

Espero que os guste.

The tax man’s taken all my dough
And left me in my stately home
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.

And I can’t sail my yacht
He’s taken everything I’ve got
All I’ve got’s this sunny afternoon.

Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime, in the summertime, in the summertime…

My girlfriend’s run off with my car,
And gone back to her ma and pa,
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty.
Now I’m sitting here,
Sipping at my ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.

Help me, help me, help me sail away
Well give me two good reasons why I oughta stay.
‘Cause I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime, in the summertime, in the summertime…

Ah, save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime, in the summertime, in the summertime…
