[Intro] (Soft drum machine, warm electric piano chords) [Verse 1] The sun is trying to kill me on a Tuesday afternoon So I sealed off the windows and retreated to my room Got the heavy blackout shades pulled down to the floor And the UV-blocking curtains hung up on the door I am manufacturing a totally perfect climate Like a highly evolved and domestic kind of primate The air purifier is humming a G note While I write down exactly what I wrote [Chorus] UV curtains and iced fruit tea That's the only kind of sanctuary for me Let the neighbors deal with the radiation and the heat I am completely off the grid while staring at the street I got my blender running and the ice is turning thin This is exactly how you let the healing begin [Verse 2] People think I'm crazy for living in the dark But I don't want to sweat while walking in the park I’ve got my sunglasses ready if I have to step outside A heavily polarized and fashionable disguise But right now I'm just brewing a concoction in a glass Watching another beautiful September day pass No citrus in the mix, just a safe and sweet delight Preparing for the safety of the New Jersey night [Chorus] UV curtains and iced fruit tea That's the only kind of sanctuary for me Let the neighbors deal with the radiation and the heat I am completely off the grid while staring at the street I got my blender running and the ice is turning thin This is exactly how you let the healing begin [Outro] Stay cool. Keep the shades down. Drink the tea. (Warm electric piano fades out)
