Su mmer stretching on the grass
Summer dresses pass
In the shade of the willow tree
Creeps are crawling over me
Ov er me and over you
Stuck together with gods glue
It's go nna' get stickier, too
It's been a long, hot summer
Lets get u ndercover
Don't try to hard to think, don't think at all
I'm n ot the only one,
St aring at the sun.
Afr aid of what you'd find
If you t ook a look inside
I'm not just deaf and dumb
St aring at the sun
No t the only one
Who'd r ather go blind
Th ere's an insect in your ear
If you scratch it won't disappear
It's go nna itch and burn and sting
You want to see what the scratching brings
Wa ves that leave me out of reach
Breaking on your back like a beach
Wi ll we ever live in peace?
'Cause those that can't do
Of ten have to
And those that can't do
Of ten have to preach
To the ones
St aring at the sun
Afr aid of what you'd find
If you t ook a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb
I'm st aring at the sun
I'm no t the only one
Who'd r ather go blind
Intr ansigence is all around
M ilitary still in town
Ar mour plated suits and ties
D addy just won't say goodbye
Re feree won't blow the whistle
Go d is good but will He listen
I' m nearly great
But there's something missing
I left it in the d uty free yeah
But you never really belonged to m e
You're n ot the only one
St aring at the sun
Afr aid of what you'd find
Yo u step back inside
Not sucking on my thumb
I'm st aring at the sun
I'm no t the only one
Who'd r ather go blind
