Hot Heavy Summer (feat. Sylvan Esso)

Baby wants to dance

Past the flat-footed charterhouse boys

From towns where the mothers can't stand

Mmm, the sight of each other

Baby wants to last

In the hearts of the wild and free

She knows that time takes all of us

Through every long, hot, heavy summer

And all of them, they talk of national security

Over garden fences made to buff the bastard breeze

Of chance encounters

Baby wants to dance

Past the Tuesday morning supermarket crowd

She knows we'll all sleep through the days

And be two-step drip fed our laughter

Says she wants to last

Mmm, last how you want to

She's a light in the young boy's eyes

Through every long, hot, heavy, summer

And all of them, they talk of national security

Over garden fences made to buff the bastard breeze

Yeah, all of them, shuffling down that lonely street

One last gasp against a long, hot, heavy summer
