Summer, summer, summertime |
| [00:20] |
time to sit back and unwind |
| [00:24] |
Here it is the groove slightly transformed |
| [00:27] |
just a bit of a break from the norm |
| [00:29] |
just a little somethin' to break the monotony |
| [00:32] |
of all that hardcore dance that has gotten to be |
| [00:34] |
a little bit out of control it's cool to dance |
| [00:37] |
but what about the groove that soothes that moves romance |
| [00:40] |
give me a soft subtle mix |
| [00:42] |
and if ain't broke then don't try to fix it |
| [00:45] |
and think of the summers of the past |
| [00:47] |
adjust the bass and let the alpine blast |
| [00:49] |
pop in my CD and let me run a rhyme |
| [00:52] |
and put your car on cruise and lay back cause this is summertime |
| [00:56] |
Summer, summer, summertime time to sit back and unwind |
| [01:25] |
school is out and it's a sort of a buzz |
| [01:28] |
a back then I didn't really know what it was |
| [01:30] |
but now I see what have of this |
| [01:33] |
the way that people respond to summer madness |
| [01:35] |
the weather is hot and girls are dressing less |
| [01:38] |
and checking out the fellas to tell 'em who's best |
| [01:40] |
riding around in your jeep or your benzos |
| [01:43] |
or in your Nissan stting on lorenzos |
| [01:45] |
back in Philly we be out in the park |
| [01:48] |
a place called the plateau is where everybody goes |
| [01:50] |
guys out hunting and girls doing likewise |
| [01:53] |
honking at the honey in front of you with the light eyes |
| [01:56] |
she turn around to see what you beeping at |
| [01:58] |
it's like the summers a natural aphrodesiac |
| [02:00] |
and with a pen and pad I.pose this rhyme |
| [02:03] |
to hit you and get you equipped for the summer time |
| [02:06] |
Summer, summer, summertime, time to sit back and unwind |
| [02:26] |
it's late in the day and I ain't been on the court yet |
| [02:28] |
hustle to the mall to get me a short set |
| [02:31] |
yeah I got on sneaks but I need a new pair |
| [02:33] |
cause basketball courts in the summer got girls there |
| [02:36] |
the temperature's about 88 |
| [02:38] |
hop in the water plug just for old times sake |
| [02:41] |
break to ya crib change your clothes once more |
| [02:43] |
cause you're invited to a barbeque that's starting at 4 |
| [02:46] |
sitting with your friends as y'all remincise |
| [02:48] |
about the days growing up and the first person you kissed |
| [02:51] |
and as I think back makes me wonder how |
| [02:53] |
the smell from a grill could spark up nostalgia |
| [02:57] |
all the kids playing out front |
| [02:58] |
little boys messin round with the girls playing double-dutch |
| [03:01] |
while the DJ's spinning a tune as the old folks dance at your family reunion |
| [03:06] |
then six o'clock rolls around |
| [03:09] |
you just finished wiping your car down |
| [03:12] |
it's time to cruise so you head to the summertime hangout |
| [03:14] |
it looks like a car show |
| [03:17] |
everybody.e lookin real fine |
| [03:18] |
fresh from the barber shop or fly from the beauty salon |
| [03:22] |
every moment frontin and maxin |
| [03:23] |
chillin in the car they spent all day waxin |
| [03:26] |
leanin to the side but you can't speed through |
| [03:29] |
Two miles an hour so everybody sees you |
| [03:32] |
there's an air of love and of happiness |
| [03:34] |
and this is the Fresh Prince's new defintion of summer madness |
| [03:37] |
Summer, summer, summertime, time to sit back and unwind |
