Summertime and everything is sweet
|
Walking barefoot to the circle k
|
On the burning street
|
Summertime and everything's on fire
|
This town is a drive-by for the
|
Whole inland empire
|
|
But down on the boulevard
|
They take it very hard
|
|
But it's alright, it's OK
|
I was going to move out of here anyway
|
Don't look at me, I've got nothing to say
|
Countdown to ecstasy
|
|
They are very rich, those boys uptown
|
They got so much now they wanna
|
Let it trickle down
|
|
La la la la la la
|
|
Summertime and everything is chill
|
Cops and gangsters cruising
|
Everybody's dressed to kill
|
|
Summertime and everything is cool
|
In the halfway house for sex offenders
|
By the school
|
|
They're laughing, they're dancing
|
They're calling everyone
|
|
Step right up, don't be shy
|
Buy a second chance
|
You need a favor?
|
I got a guy
|
Who can buy you a second chance...
|
|
But it's alright with me
|
If they lock you up
|
Then I can be free
|
Six of you
|
Half a dozen of me
|
So count down...
|
Alright, OK,
|
I was gonna move out of there anyway
|
Don't look at me
|
I've got nothing to say
|
As you countdown to ecstasy
|
Countdown to ecstasy
|
