The Song Of The Summer by SCENE KID

"Apparently, you needed one... " First warm Saturday, shirts off by ten The pub drags six chairs to the pavement again Someone says “heatwave” like they booked it themselves Everyone’s outside with a version to sell White trainers, warm cans, borrowed shades One decent photo doing seven days You call it spontaneous, alright, fair enough I’ve seen fire drills with less setting up You wanted a season With a chorus attached Something easy to feel And easier to caption So here it is Try not to overthink it You were going to want one We just got there first This is the song of the summer You were waiting for one Turn it up through the windows For as long as it’s light This is the song of the summer Get your best mates in shot For the nights you’ll remember And the bits that you won’t We’ve supplied you the feeling You provide us the rush We’ve supplied you the feeling You provide us the rush By mid-July, it’s leaking out of every car Tinny through a phone by the off-licence door Presenters call it “the sound of now” Like we didn’t send them the wording somehow Someone’s crying in a beer-garden loo To the bit where we’re taking the piss out of you You sing it louder, and fair play too A joke gets serious when it belongs to you Now it’s under your videos On the night bus at two At some mate’s barbecue Like it always belonged to you You wanted a memory We wanted the slot Call it mutual assistance Call it taking the lot This is the song of the summer You were waiting for one Turn it up through the windows For as long as it’s light This is the song of the summer Get your best mates in shot For the nights you’ll remember And the bits that you won’t We’ve supplied you the feeling You provide us the rush We’ve supplied you the feeling You provide us the rush Maybe three minutes is plenty Maybe wanting it counts Maybe summer’s just the evenings When everybody heads out With somewhere to be seen And somebody to miss A chorus big enough to turn Any old night into this This is the song of the summer You were waiting for one Turn it up through the windows For as long as it’s light This is the song of the summer Get your best mates in shot For the nights you’ll remember And the bits that you won’t We’ve supplied you the feeling You provide us the rush We’ve supplied you the feeling You provide us the rush We’ve supplied you the feeling You provide us the rush
