Happy Things
I was thinking today
Of things in my mind that stay
Sunny days on my bike
Riding to the beach and back before night
Of shows on TV after school
With fun being the golden rule
There was Lost in Space
And The Monkees at their place
Don’t forget The Beatles singing their songs
With me playing the air guitar and singing along
Roy Rogers and Trigger riding the range fast
Cisco Kid and oh Pancho friends to the last
And the Brady Brunch was fun
Falling for Marsha was number one
Disneyland on a Sunday night
Bathed in clean pyjamas felt right
As Aussie children we had it all
Sunshine in the summer having a ball
And entertainment on the TV
We watched it lying down in front so easily
These happy things float in and out of my memory
Not wanting to lose those years being carefree.
