Over bridge of sighs To rest my eyes in shades of green Under dreamin' spires To Itchycoo Park, that's where I've been What did you do there? I got high What did you feel there? Well I cried But why the tears then? I'll tell you why It's all too beautiful It's all too beautiful It's all too beautiful It's all too beautiful Feel inclined to blow my mind Get hung up feeding ducks with a bun They all come out to groove about Be nice and have fun in the sun Tell you what I'll do (what will you do?) I'd like to go there now with you You can miss out school (won't that be cool) While I learn about the words of fools What will we do there? We'll get high What will you touch there? We'll Touch the sky But why the tears then? I'll tell you why It's all too beautiful It's all too beautiful It's all too beautiful It's all too beautiful I feel inclined to blow my mind Get hung up feeding ducks with a bun They all come out to groove about Be nicer than fun in the sun It's all too beautiful It's all too beautiful It's all too beautiful Ha! It's all too beautiful

O efeito de flanging presente na faixa foi criado por meio de processos eletromecânicos, uma técnica que a tornou uma das canções pop da época a explorar esse som.
A música atingiu o número 3 nas paradas britânicas e chegou ao topo (número 1) Tanto no Canadá quanto na Nova Zelândia.
Foi o único hit da banda a entrar no top 40 dos Estados Unidos, posicionando-se em 16º lugar na Billboard Hot 100 no início de 1968.
O título "Itchycoo Park" é objeto de debate, com teorias apontando para parques em East London como o Little Ilford Park ou Wanstead Flats, onde o apelido estaria relacionado às urtigas que causam coceira ("stinging nettles").
A reedição do single em dezembro de 1975, que alcançou a nona posição no Reino Unido, é frequentemente creditada como a razão para o reencontro da banda no meio da década de 1970.
Embora escrita por Steve Marriott e Ronnie Lane, a composição foi majoritariamente elaborada por Lane.
