Mercury is rising still Turn the fan on high I won't step on my own shadow No one wants to cry Someone put a pox on me I'll spit in their eye Summer turns to high With my bed sheet cape and sandals Circle citronella candles Summer's here, the light is raising Hopes and dragonflies If those hopes are overshadowed, Cotton candy, caramel apple. Summer turns to high Summer turns to high Summer turns to high, Summer high After wine and nectarines The fireflies in time Move like syrup through the evening With a sweet resign I won't pine for what could have been- I'm preoccupied! Summer turns to high Summer turns to high Summer turns to high, Summer high.
