Fünfter Song der "Blue side" des Albums.
Humoristisches Angebot an Mona, allerhand Fortbewegungsmittel auszuprobieren, vom Tretboot bis zum fliegenden Handtuch (für einen Teppich hat es nicht gereicht). Der Protagonist hatte die Großstadt satt und bewegt sich jetzt zwischen Park und Seeufer hin und her, trifft auf Eichhörnchen und Igel und wirbt um Mona.
Musik: Roland, Text: Richard
Vocals: Roland (lead), Richard und Sony (background)

Mona, you've been called a chameleon
I've enjoyed from a distance
All the colours you produce without restraint
Mona, take a ride in my vehicle
It's a funny old rickshaw
Got no motor but a dazzling coat of paint
Redwood Park keeps calling me
Such a wonderland
It's the place I first saw you
All the squirrels think you're cool
So why shouldn't I?
Look, I brought some walnuts, too
Mona, will you ride on my bicycle?
When you're feeling quite dizzy
There are training wheels to keep it stabilized
Mona, take a seat in my pedal boat
It's an oldie but goodie
Keeping pace with somewhat lazy butterflies
See my hideaway, it looks out on a lake
All the windows here are shaped like animals
Play your ukulele by the eucalyptus tree
Feel the pleasant temperature
There's a swinging hammock and a belly button door
Also some pet-friendly furniture
Mona, take a seat in my pedal boat
It's an oldie but goodie
Not unlike myself - that's why you're teasing me
Mona, as to female anatomy
I've got several questions
I assume you could throw light on easily
I was once a boobam player in a trendy cocktail bar
Then became a better loser with a hollow jazz guitar
Took a Greyhound to the West Coast when the city felt too strange
And I wandered through the forest with a pocket full of change
When I'm tired and downhearted sprightly squirrels give support
Two more benefits of summer: days are long and skirts are short
Mona, will you sit down so close to me
On my magical blanket
Not a carpet but I swear that it can fly
Mona, now we'll glide to the ice cream van
Buy a bag of pistachios
Give an apple to a hedgehog dropping by
I've enjoyed from a distance
All the colours you produce without restraint
Mona, take a ride in my vehicle
It's a funny old rickshaw
Got no motor but a dazzling coat of paint
Redwood Park keeps calling me
Such a wonderland
