|
Hot summer streets |
|
And the pavements are burning |
|
I sit around |
|
Trying to smile |
|
But the air is so heavy and dry |
|
Strange voices are saying |
|
What did they say |
|
Things I can't understand |
|
It's too close for comfort |
|
This heat has got right out of hand |
|
(chorus) |
|
It's a cruel, cruel summer |
|
Leaving me here on my own |
|
It's a cruel, cruel summer |
|
Now you've gone |
|
The city is crowded |
|
My friends are away |
|
And I'm on my own |
|
It's too hot to handle |
|
So I got to get up and go |
|
(chorus) |
|
You're not the only one |
|
(chorus) |
|
(Cruel Summer 89 only) |
|
Who can I find while I'm trapped |
|
Here inside these four walls |
|
(chorus ad lib) |
