Summer Babe

Pavement

and she's eating her fingers

like they're just another meal

and she waits there in the levee wash

mixing cocktails with a plastic-tipped cigar

my eyes stick to all those shiny robes

you wear on the protein delta strip

in an abandoned houseboat

I'll wait there, I'll be waiting forever

waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting

minerals, ice deposits

daily drop off the first shiny robe

I've got a lot of things

I want to sell but not here babe, you took it all

everytime I sit around I find that I'm shocked

everytime I sit around I find that I'm shocked

everytime I sit around I find

everytime I sit around I find

everytime, everytime, everytime, everytime

you're my summer babe
