The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Sunday Afternoons on Wisdom Ave. lyrics

A modest triple decker in a section that was working cla** Not a lot of company but we would go there after ma** Lace curtains in the windows that had been there since the last great war They were on first one and the Mulligans lived on the second floor Sunday driving in the big Sedan Soup and sandwich on the TV stand Glad to be there it was nice to have Sunday afternoons on Wisdom Ave. There was nothing in the pantry and we can't be in the parlor there It's really nothing fancy honey here is a half a dollar dear A John F. Kennedy coin that you and your brother both can share Just not the type of people that are ever gonna to put on airs Sunday driving in the big Sedan Soup and sandwich on the TV stand Glad to be there it was nice to have Sunday afternoons on Wisdom Ave. Outside on the playground there's a pick-up game of hoops Picked up the Sunday Journal at the Greeks We would watch the Filipinos with the Yoyo's on the stoop But no not on your life six days a week No one was ever listening to anybody else We only ever knew what we were told Only on Wisdom Avenue on Sunday afternoons Wisdom Ave's where everything grew old Sunday driving in the big Sedan Soup and sandwich on the TV stand Had to be there just to see first hand Whatever had happened to my old man Sunday driving in the big Sedan Soup and sandwich on the TV stand Glad to be there it was nice to have Sunday afternoons on Wisdom Ave.
