lyrics

IN THE SUMMERTIME WHEN EVERYTHING IS HOLY

(from "Get Old and Die With Flaming Fire")

MEN: In the summertime when everything is holy
WOMEN: I go out and roll-y, roll-y, roll-y
MEN: In the green grass of my lawn
WOMEN: Then fall comes and the grass is gone
MEN: There's a place where we can dance
WOMEN: Take drugs and fall into a trance
MEN: Let the moon take such a long time
WOMEN: Wait until the crickets start to chirp in rhyme

MEN: Ba-ba-ba-ba
WOMEN: Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba

WOMEN & MEN:
The moon crawls
Across a hot black sky
Hold me tight and never ask me why
Why can't we stay like this forever
Why does passion fade just like the weather

MEN: In the fall, the brown leaves tumble
WOMEN: Under your feet, I can hear the crumble
MEN: We could be warm by a big bonfire
WOMEN: Send away summer on a funeral pyre

MEN: In the winter, the world is grey
WOMEN: The freezing wind screams night and day
MEN: Stay inside and drink and slumber
WOMEN: Dream of light and the heat of summer

about

Flaming Fire

"Flaming Fire’s frontman, Patrick Hambrecht, and his wife, Kate (who sings backup), are preachers’ children who seem as if they accidentally wandered onto the set of a Kenneth Anger film and decided to stay. The Hambrechts are waiting for the apocalypse, and their version of “Whiskey River” is the soundtrack to its aftermath." - Rachel Kushner, Author of "The Flame Throwers," New York Times ... more
