Downtown  in  the  shade

Staring  at  the  sunshine  in  my  face

Telling  me  to  come  and  hide,  come  and  play

I'm  telling  you  the  sun  never  goes  away

And  all  I  do  is  talk,  talk,  talk  away

I'm  laughing  my  life  away

I'm  staring  at  the  sun  again

Till  everything's  fading

It's  like  a  swollen  summer

What  if  I'm  getting  dumber?

What  if  I'm  just  in  denial?

What  if  they  come  and  cop  my  style?

Downtown  in  the  clear

All  I  know  is  nothing  ever  changes  here

And  I  know  there's  no  excuse  and  no  defence

But  my  summertime  never  ends

And  all  I  do  is  talk,  talk,  talk  away

I'm  laughing  my  life  away

I'm  staring  at  the  sun  again

Till  everything's  fading

It's  like  a  swollen  summer

What  if  I'm  getting  dumber?

What  if  I'm  just  in  denial?

What  if  they  come  and  cop  my  style?

It's  like  a  swollen  summer

What  if  I'm  getting  dumber?

What  if  I'm  just  in  denial?

What  if  they  come  and  cop  my  style?

Swollen  summer

Swollen  summer

Swollen  summer

Swollen  summer
