[00:15]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
