The local rock group down the street Is trying hard to learn their song They serenade the weekend squire Who just came out to mow the lawn Another Pleasant Valley Sunday Charcoal burning everywhere (charcoal burning everywhere) Rows of houses that are all the same And no one seems to care See Mrs. Gray, she's proud today Because her roses are in bloom And Mr. Green, he's so serene He's got a TV in every room Another Pleasant Valley Sunday Here in status-symbol-land Mothers complain about how hard life is And the kids just don't understand Creature comfort goals They only numb my soul And make it hard for me to see Oh, my thoughts all seem to stray To places far away I need a change in scenery Another Pleasant Valley Sunday Here in status symbol land
