Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Close the shop, let's take a drive
Take a break from nine to five
It's so great to be alive, oh yeah
We could rent some roller skates
We could skate around the lake
If we don't know how, we'll fake it, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
Strolling, strolling, we could have fun just strolling
Rocking, rolling, oh yeah
[Verse 3]
Let's forget about the time (Time)
Let's relax and ease our mind (Mind)
We deserve to just feel fine, oh yeah
We could stroll the mezzanine (Stroll)
Buy some dirty magazine
Laugh behind it while we're eatin' ice cream (Ha, ha, ha, ha)
[Verse 4]
Strolling, strolling, we could have fun just strolling
Rocking, rolling, oh yeah
[Verse 5]
See the man with the blue guitar
Maybe one day he'll be a star
Give him your ice cream and I'll give him the keys to my car
There's so much hate goin' round
Hard to not let it get you down
Least we can do is make a joyful sound, oh yeah
[Verse 6]
Strolling, strolling, we could have fun just strolling
Rocking, rolling, oh yeah
[Verse 7]
(Strolling) Strolling, strolling
(Strolling) Oh (Oh yeah, strolling)
(We could have fun, we could have fun just strolling)
Rocking, rolling, oh yeah
[Verse 8]
(Strolling, strolling) Close the shop, let's take a ride
(We could have fun just strolling) Take a break from nine to five
(Rocking, rolling, oh yeah) So great, so great to be alive
[Verse 9]
Oh yeah (Strolling, strolling), strolling
(We could have fun just strolling)
(Rocking, rolling, oh yeah) Rocking, rolling, oh yeah
[Verse 10]
(Strolling, strolling) Strolling, strolling
(We could have fun just strolling)
(Rocking, rolling, oh yeah)
Strolling, strolling
(We could have fun just strolling)
Oh yeah
