August 8th Lyrics by NOFX

Heavy Petting Zoo

1996

[Verse 1]
Birds sing, there's not a cloud in the sky
August 8th is a beautiful day
I see, a bunch of hippies crying
Yeah, August 8th is a beautiful day

[Verse 2]
Like waking up from a real bad dream
Suddenly everything is okay
The storm has passed, the sun is shining
Yeah, August 8th is a beautiful day

[Chorus]
What's going on, what's going on?
Is something bumming your scene?
There's something wrong, there's something wrong
I'm not trying to be mean

[Verse 3]
The air is sweet, the summer flowers blooming
Nowhere in sight is there anything gray
Feelings of joy are filling the street
Yeah, August 8th is a beautiful day

[Verse 4]
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

[Chorus]
What's going on, what's going on?
Is something bumming your scene?
There's something wrong, there's something wrong
I'm not trying to be mean

[Outro]
Poor Jeff, poor little Timmy Turtle
Staying home on such a beautiful day
