Sunday Morning: The Velvet Underground

Good morning, and good day! We're off to the Zoo with Lord Running Boy before he destroys the house or more of its contents. This is the kind of music I'd like to be listening to, something quiet and contemplative and dreamy while the cool morning breezes caress the skin and waft streams of steam gently off the tea. But I don't have that. I have a war-whooping three-year old bundle of ambush jumping on me, hoisting open the window, tearing leaves off the tree while being restrained from climbing it, and yelling out to the neighborhood that he is very much Alive. "Hello, people! I'm a-go to the Zoo!" Who has indeed jumped on me numerous times in the course of writing this post. Live blogging. I've heard this song many times, and can play it in my head. But here is the video, and here are the lyrics:

Sunday morning, praise the dawning
Its just a restless feeling by my side
Early dawning, sunday morning
Its just the wasted years so close behind

Watch out, the worlds behind you
Theres always someone around you who will call
Its nothing at all

Sunday morning and Im falling
Ive got a feeling I dont want to know
Early dawning, sunday morning
Its all the streets you crossed, not so long ago

Watch out, the worlds behind you
Theres always someone around you who will call
Its nothing at all

Watch out, the worlds behind you
Theres always someone around you who will call
Its nothing at all

Sunday morning!
Sunday morning!
