Lyrics

[00:00.61] This dumb jam didn't mean a thing
[00:02.72] Ecstasy, rave is king
[00:05.12] Fake diamonds shining on a finger
[00:07.32] And I'm bad for you
[00:09.74] You stole my soul, or I gave it to you
[00:11.92]
[00:13.16] I wish I was a spray can
[00:14.79] Hey!
[00:15.25] Where did everybody go?
[00:16.69] Everyone I know has blown the coast and
[00:19.81] Shiver in the wind, it shows
[00:21.73] All I have are summer clothes
[00:24.62] Oh it brings me down when it's wintertime
[00:27.61] In a Summer Town and
[00:31.31] It's winter time in a Summer Town and
[00:34.23]
[00:35.13] All we are friends we keep
[00:37.25] Or lose in time
[00:39.83] Fade away the precious ones we keep in mind
[00:44.50] I wonder now if I'm the one
[00:46.83] That you leave behind.
[00:49.29] Cause after Hallowe'en
[00:51.60] Everything starts fading
[00:54.03] I'm losing everyone
[00:56.24] I go down like that sun
[00:58.66] You know what I mean
[01:01.05] I'm just someone in a Summer Town
[01:04.22]
[01:05.35] Standing by the old beach house house
[01:07.34] Where we stood outside, sang out loud and
[01:10.41] I will shiver like a ghost
[01:12.10] I remember the time that we drew a crowd and
[01:15.62] I told you everything I knew
[01:18.01] In a manic rushing line
[01:20.53] I wonder now if I'm the kind
[01:22.97] That you left behind
[01:25.28] Cause after Hallowe'en
[01:27.71] Everything starts fading
[01:30.13] I'm losing everyone
[01:32.34] I go down like that sun
[01:34.71] You know what I mean
[01:37.32] My whole life is a Summer Town
[01:40.37]
[01:55.91] You get into the people you met
[01:57.50] And the moment comes
[01:58.76] That you can't forget, and
[02:00.51] Some flies in trajectory
[02:02.47] That you gave me more than you took from me
[02:05.85] I'm as empty now as a vacant sign
[02:09.21] Like tonight
[02:10.71]
[02:11.15] Cause after Hallowe'en
[02:13.39] Can we stay together?
[02:15.59] I'm losing everyone and I come undone
[02:20.54] Nothing lasts forever
[02:22.91] Last summer is done
[02:25.02] Can we find another one?
[02:27.50] Find another one.
[02:29.34] No no no no
[02:31.68] Yeah!
[02:33.04]
[02:39.11] Hey, where'd everybody go?
[02:40.70] Everyone I know has blown the coast and
[02:43.76] All we are is holding on
[02:45.42] But we're letting it go,
[02:46.67] Letting it go,
[02:47.41] Letting it
[02:48.69] All we are is friends we keep
[02:50.43] When we lose them all
[02:51.62] And it's bittersweet and
[02:53.41] I realize we'll always be in a Summer Town
[02:57.40]
[03:09.65] I wish I was a spray can
[03:11.55] To write my name on the world and
[03:13.85] I wish I was a megaphone with my speaker blown
[03:16.68] To get myself known in a Summer Town
[03:20.47] Smell sun block on her hot skin
[03:22.75] In the bungalow before the day begins
[03:25.05] Some dumb jam didn't mean a thing
[03:27.45] Ecstasy, rave is king!
[03:30.43] Fake diamonds shining on a finger
[03:32.20] I'm bad for you as anyone you ever knew
[03:34.72] Still you stole my soul or I gave it to you
[03:36.93] Yeah you stole my soul or I gave it to you
[03:39.35] And then we get high and do the 5-5 deal
[03:41.97] Rock a fanny pack now from the front
[03:44.18] Because she's busy
[03:44.99] With the bumps of fake cocaine
[03:46.98] It was funny once now it's funny again
[03:49.09] And I was never able to reach her
[03:52.17] No no
[03:54.22] Next leap of the creature
[03:56.33] Maybe then, maybe then
[03:58.15]
[03:58.89] Summer dies then you go away
[04:01.03] Wanna be hustles cool M.I.A.
[04:03.59] Make a paper plane then you fly away
[04:06.08] You make a paper plane then you fly away
[04:08.41] Fly away
[04:12.57] We can fly away.
[04:18.06] Once a super secret
[04:18.98] Stupid f**king pocket!
[04:20.25] Where I left my bungalow keys?
[04:22.25] How am I always waking up in places like these?
[04:24.58] Who's been singing all my symphonies?
[04:26.79] Rap bastards!
[04:27.69] Impaling my infamies
[04:30.09] You'll be begging murder please
[04:32.30] But back to the tramp in the little sundress
[04:34.44] She was reading Nabokov, Miller and Tess
[04:36.90] Dressed so fine just as you are
[04:39.85] Stone cold rap superstar
[04:44.05] And, I was never able to reach her.
[04:47.53] Alright
[04:49.28]
