Lyrics

Documentary Filmmaker

Well, a documentary filmmaker passes by on the hospital ward
And a documentary filmmaker poses for a photo
And a documentary filmmaker goes home at the end of the day
But I'll sit and watch the seasons change

'Cause it was warm in the summer
Warm in the summer
Warm in the summer
Warm in the summer

But snowy in February
Snowy in February
Snowy in February
Snowy in February

The sweat dripped off my plastic sheets
Oh, the sweat dripped down onto my knees

It was warm in the summer
Warm in the summer
Warm in the summer
Warm in the summer
Oh, oh

Because the eggs are cheaper the day after Easter
And the eggs, they are always cheaper the day after Easter
And I know, oh I know, it must be hard to pass them by
And I know, oh I know, he's filming all the time
