Lyrics
Open the window, what is that glow Warm on the pavement, warm on my toes Neighbours on stoops with their faces up high Winter went quiet and spring said hi Roll them up, roll them up Feel it now, it's enough Sleeves up, sun's out Sing it loud, spread the word about Sleeves up, sun's out Everybody's dancing, no doubt Sleeves up, sun's out Shake off the cold, turn it around Sleeves up, sun's out First warm day, we found it, we found it Bicycle bells and the ice-cream song Laughing in lanes where we all belong Shades on my head, and my jacket's a shawl Spring is the DJ and she's playing for all Roll them up, roll them up Feel it now, it's enough Sleeves up, sun's out Sing it loud, spread the word about Sleeves up, sun's out Everybody's dancing, no doubt Sleeves up, sun's out Shake off the cold, turn it around Sleeves up, sun's out First warm day, we found it, we found it Call and answer, hands in the air Sun on our shoulders, nothing to wear But a smile and a song, hey Sun's out, hey, hey Sleeves up, sun's out Sing it loud, spread the word about Sleeves up, sun's out Everybody's dancing, no doubt Sleeves up, sun's out Shake off the cold, turn it around Sleeves up, sun's out First warm day, we found it, we found it Sleeves up, sun's out Sleeves up, sun's out
