Next Summer

Like a statue waiting for the future

Finding comfort in white lies

Happy hiding from the awful facts

Take it round and bring it back

Optimism can be so nauseating

Say nothing when we’re alone

Next summer could be intoxicating

The best time for me to go go

Like a vulture stretching out my shadow

Flying close to what remains

One last curtsey, then we’ll all fall down

And you know, you know

Optimism can be so nauseating

Say nothing when we’re alone

Next summer could be intoxicating

The best time for me to go go

Optimism can be so nauseating

Say nothing when we’re alone

Next summer will be exhilarating

The right time for me to go go go
