Lyrics

[Intro] This dumb jam didn't mean a thing Ecstasy, rave is king Fake diamonds shinin' on her finger And I'm bad for you, for you You stole my soul, or I gave it to you [Verse 1] (I wish I was a spray can...) Hey where did everybody go? Everyone I know has blown the coast and Shiver in the wind, it shows All I have are summer clothes and Oh, it brings me down When it's winter time in a summer town and It's winter time in a summer town and [Pre-Chorus 1] All we are are friends we keep or lose in time Fade away, the precious ones we keep in mind I wonder now if I'm the one that you'd leave behind [Chorus 1] 'Cause after Halloween everything starts fadin' I'm losing everyone, I go down like the sun You know what I mean I'm just someone in a summer town [Verse 2] Standin' by the old beach house Where we stood outside, sang out loud and And I will shiver like a ghost I remember the time that we drew a crowd and [Pre-Chorus 2] I told you everything I knew in the manic rushing line I wonder now if I'm the kind that you left behind [Chorus 2] 'Cause after Halloween everything starts fadin' I'm losing everyone, I go down like the sun You know what I mean My whole life is a summer town [Verse 3] You get into the people you met And the moment comes that you can't forget and Some flies in trajectory Did you give me more than you took from me and I'm as empty now as a vacant sign, like tonight [Chorus 3] After Halloween can we stay together? Like I'm losin' everyone and I come undone But nothin' lasts forever, the last summer is done Can we find another one? Find another one No, no, no, no, yeah! [Bridge] Hey where'd everybody go? Everyone I know has blown the coast and All we are is holdin' on But we're lettin' it go, we're lettin' it go, we're lettin' it All we are are friends we keep When we lose them all it's bittersweet and I realize we'll always be in a summer town [Outro] I wish I was a spray can To write my name on the world and I wish I was a megaphone with my speaker blown To get myself known in a summer town I smell sun block on her hot skin In the bungalow before the day begins This is some dumb jam, it didn't mean a thing Ecstasy, rave is king Fake diamonds shinin' on her finger I'm bad for you as anyone you ever knew Still you stole my soul, or I gave it to you Yeah, you stole my soul, or I gave it to you Get high and do the five five deal Rock a fanny pack now from the front She's generous with the bumps of the fake cocaine It was funny once then, now it's funny again And I was never able to reach her No, no Next leap of the creature, maybe then, maybe then Summer dies and then you go away Wanna be hustler school M.I.A. Make a paper plane then you fly away Make a paper plane then you fly away Fly away We can fly away Once a super secret your stupid fuckin' pocket Where I left my bungalow keys How am I always waking up in places like these? Who's been singin' all my symphonies? Rap bastards palliate my infamies You'll be beggin', burnin', please Back to the champ in the little sun dress She was reading Nabokov, Miller, and Tess And undressed so fine just as you are A stone cold rap superstar And I was never able to reach her Alright
