How do I put chaos into words?
How can I capture an emotion, such as love, in three syllables?
How do I generate my spirit in those who can hear me?
How can I sing out with pride without being so shy?

What is accepted and what is right,
Don’t always agree with each other
What are mistakes,
If you make them time and again
What clothes should we wear,
When it’s a Sunday afternoon in the Park

In the Park
When it’s a Sunday afternoon in the Park
In the Park

What’s the message we’re conveying,
When we gather peace ____ fully
It’s the same message we’re saying,
As when we live respectfully
I see nothing wrong with obedience,
When it means we can have Sunday afternoons in the Park

In the Park
We’ll have Sunday afternoons in the Park
In the Park

Some value fighting for every small detail,
Even those they’ve won
Why criticize our freedom,
With the actions you’ve just done
I love living in America,
Where our dreams can be achieved
So why do you keep fighting,
The people who treat you fair
Our government may stop us,
From hurting other folks
But how does that hinder,
Our Sunday afternoons in the Park

In the Park
We have our Sunday afternoons in the Park
In the Park
