Summer Season

[Verse 1]

The sun is shining, I don't care

Shoulders, legs out everywhere

Sky so empty, sky so blue

Snap, that’s how I feel too

In case I never made it home

I used to carry a small comb

A folding toothbrush, pair of shades

On my old weekly escapades

[Pre-Chorus]

The body breaks, it disobeys

Betrays its woes and weakness

The spirit wanes, the verve decays

That's what I tell myself

[Chorus]

I got your email, hope all's well

So glad you rang that silent bell

Two ticks, you’ve got my message

Be good to see you now

It's summer season in the city

And everyone's so fucking pretty

And I drink on my own

If you want me, you can get me on the phone

[Interlude]

Hello, sorry, I can't take your call

I might be busy, fallen asleep, leave a message

[Verse 2]

And I don't think I've changed

But I just can't find the will

I disappear, but I'm happy here

I’m thinking I’m fulfilled

[Pre-Chorus]

I saw your post, you're looking well

We’re overdue a catch-up

The quiet night, a happy hell

That's where I find myself

[Chorus]

I got your email, hope all's well

So glad you rang that silent bell

Two ticks, you've got my message

Be good to see you

But it’s summer season in the city

And everyone's so fucking pretty

And I drink on my own

If you want me, you can get me on the phone

[Outro]

Sun is shining, let's pretend my lockdown didn't end

I'm cordial, not keen, unseen

In this summer season in the city

Where everyone's so fucking pretty

And I drink on my own

If you need me, you can find me on the phone
