It's hard to think of all we've done All our parts and places we've come from and left Give up or it'll all get stuck in your head and brain It'll drive you up the wall Suddenly we've all grown ten feet Taller than my building blocks towering up It's such a waste to blame the rain It's so peculiar The lines we're forming Our parts performing Maybe I'm much too young To break the law, to buy a gun On Summerdays If I had a knife to cut I'd peel you back and take you cuffed To Summerdays And summer ways
Can't we just watch the news And let them tell us just what to do Through radio-waves On Summerdays It's so peculiar The lines we're forming Our parts performing Can't we just watch the news And let them tell us just what to do Through radio-waves On Summerdays Days we've lost and left our beds To think of all the books we haven't read It's so peculiar The lines we're forming Our parts performing I learned a long time ago And now we're folding All the time we thought we were alone
