3 minutes of summer fun
Written with Billy for Musemuse collab comp
Until The Summer Ends
Steaks and dogs are on the grill
The girls are by the pool
Sitting here with an ice cold beer
Tryin’ to keep my engine cool
Summer heat is beating down
On my sun-soaked face
I must admit from where I sit
It’s hard to beat this place
Gimme a brew with a wedge of lime
To quench my thirst in the summertime
Singing and dancing with my friends
Until the summer ends
Johnny’s passed out on the lawn
With a cocktail in his hand
His girlfriend’s rolling in the hay
With the drummer from his band
Three chicks are skinny dippin’
The crowd is going wild
And I think that squeeze with the double d’s
Just winked at me and smiled
Gimme a brew with a wedge of lime
To quench my thirst in the summertime
My Doc says I’ve got a hollow leg
So save me a seat by the keg
Crank up the tunes, enjoy the sights
Infringing on the neighbors rights
Singing and dancing with my friends
Until the summer ends
Soon we’ll go our separate ways
As the dog days disappear
With a tearstained eye I’ll say goodbye
To my best time of the year
I hate to wait the 9 long months
Autumn, Winter, Spring
But I’ll bide my time on the bosses dime
Till summer’s here again
