Lyrics

[00:22.66] She's been afraid of the Cuisinart since 1977
[00:29.17] Now when she opens up the house
[00:31.67] Well, she won't set foot in the kitchen
[00:35.91] Her brother's dating an architect
[00:38.92] They're coming up for the weekend
[00:42.55] He never gave her the proper respect
[00:45.11] But she still meets the ferry to greet them
[00:49.12] Oh, at the summer place
[00:50.99] We've got the space if you've got the time
[00:56.19] And the summer place is so far away
[01:00.87] It's another state of mind
[01:06.75] Mind, mind, mind
[01:15.37]
[01:18.25] She ran away back in '78
[01:21.37] Just down the beach to the neighbors
[01:24.68] They brought her back after sunset
[01:27.06] But dad sad "Don't do me any favors"
[01:31.50] Her mom would sit on the pateo
[01:34.68] She said she needed the sea air
[01:38.00] She'd drink a fifth of Seagrams
[01:40.50] And then she'd sink down into her deck chair
[01:44.00]
[01:44.50] Oh, at the summer place
[01:47.44] We've got the space if you've got the time
[01:51.19] And the summer place is so far away
[01:56.31] It's another state of mind
[02:01.87] Mind, mind, mind
[02:10.44]
[02:14.19] At 15 shoplifting
[02:17.19] Was the only game she liked to play
[02:20.63] At 40 she's still bored
[02:23.50] She thinks about it then decides to pay
[02:27.13] And still she can't help feeling
[02:29.88] Those good old days don't seem so far away （seem so far away）
[02:35.25] But should just yesterday
[02:37.19] She took a handful of mushrooms
[02:40.32] That she got from a surfer
[02:43.69] She spent a night in a hospital room
[02:46.25] So the doctors could observe her
[02:50.13] Oh, at the summer place
[02:53.07] We've got the space, you should drop on by
[02:57.75] At the summer place the injuries fade
[03:01.82] But the memories last a lifetime
[03:07.07] Lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
