Lyrics
Life’s an ever unwinding wonder
Love is a wild and a wonderful wreck
We all perk up at the sound of thunder
We’ll all be alert once we start that trek
In the summertime, in the sweet summertime
In quest of new rhyme, in the summertime
Casual times that go uncounted
Some elevated to a melodious zone
Critical lines that start discounted
Complex chords within a compound tone
In the summertime, in the sweet summertime
Drawing air that’s fine in the sweet, sweet, summertime
Perhaps we’ll just sit back and ponder some more
Before launching an attack on the troubadour
But what was that all really for?
I have got no time to connive your crazy crimes
It is summertime and it’s sweet, sweet
Why can’t you just step up and swing correctly?
Or simply state your point of view directly?
Verdure, vitality, we know now this won’t last long
A mature morality craves exercise from the strong
And a hunger for the song
Here it is, here it is, here it is
