Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning,
And the first thing that I heard,
Was a song outside my window,
And the traffic wrote the words,
It came ringing up like Christmas bells,
And rapping up like pipes and drums.
And the first thing that I heard,
Was a song outside my window,
And the traffic wrote the words,
It came ringing up like Christmas bells,
And rapping up like pipes and drums.
Oh, won't you stay we'll put on the day,
And we'll wear it 'til the night comes.
And we'll wear it 'til the night comes.
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning,
And the first thing that I saw,
Was the sun through yellow curtains,
And a rainbow on the wall,
Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you,
Crimson crystal beads to beckon
And the first thing that I saw,
Was the sun through yellow curtains,
And a rainbow on the wall,
Blue, red, green and gold to welcome you,
Crimson crystal beads to beckon
Oh, won't you stay we'll put on the day,
There's a sun show every second.
There's a sun show every second.
Now the curtain opens on a portrait of today.
And the streets are paved with passersby,
And pigeons fly, and papers lie,
Waiting to blow away.
And the streets are paved with passersby,
And pigeons fly, and papers lie,
Waiting to blow away.
Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning,
And the first thing that I knew,
There was milk and toast and honey,
And a bowl of orange juice too,
And the sun poured in like butterscotch,
And stuck to all my senses.
Oh, won't you stay we'll put on the day,
And we'll talk in present tenses.
And the first thing that I knew,
There was milk and toast and honey,
And a bowl of orange juice too,
And the sun poured in like butterscotch,
And stuck to all my senses.
Oh, won't you stay we'll put on the day,
And we'll talk in present tenses.
When the curtain closes,
And the rainbow runs away,
I will bring you incense owls by night,
By candlelight, by two jewel light
If only you will stay.
Pretty baby won't you.
Wake up, it is a Chelsea morning.
And the rainbow runs away,
I will bring you incense owls by night,
By candlelight, by two jewel light
If only you will stay.
Pretty baby won't you.
Wake up, it is a Chelsea morning.
