From the recording Discombobulated
There's the joy of youth, hanging out, fooling around, having fun.
And one day I was walking on Gilles Street in Adelaide at 10am and there was a homeless couple lying spooning on and under a mass of dirty blankets. Just right in the middle of the sidewalk in front of well-to-do houses. But the most poignant thing was that there were two sets of shoes, one big, one small, neatly side by side. Made me cry.
Lyrics
No time for hanging around, come on and follow us down
Oh Sunset Square.
Grab your bike, get your phone, text your friends come along
Oh Sunset Square.
And every time you feel it closing in
Money’s tight, and friends are running thin
You don’t have to be, a millionaire, to love life at Sunset Square
Water’s warm, sky is blue, girls are pretty and the boys are too
Oh Sunset Square.
Chatting, laughing, fool around, dig the groove the summer sound
Oh Sunset Square.
And every time you feel it closing in
Money’s tight, and friends are running thin
You don’t have to be, a millionaire, to love life at Sunset Square
Walking down the street the other day, took by surprise I say
Spooning on the street, shoes together neat, on such a perfect day
No time for hanging around, come on and follow us down
Oh, Sunset Square.
grab your bike and get your phone, text your friends to come along
Oh, Sunset Square.
And every time you feel it closing in
Money's tight, and friends are running thin
You don’t have to be, a millionaire, to love life at Sunset Square
