Summer stretching on the grass... summer dresses pass <br />In the shade of a willow tree creeps a crawling over me <br />Over me and over you stuck together with God's glue <br />It's going to get stickier too... <br />It's been a long hot summer <br />let's go undercover <br />Don't try too hard to think... don't think at all <br /><br />I'm not the only one starin' at the sun <br />Afraid of what you'd find if you took a look inside <br />Not just deaf and dumb i'm staring at the sun <br />Not the only one who's happy to go blind <br /><br />There's an insect in your ear if you scratch it won't disappear <br />It's gonna itch and burn and sting <br />Do you want to see what the scratching brings <br />Waves that leave me out of reach <br />Breaking on your back like a beach... <br />Will we ever live in peace? <br />Cause those that can't do often have to <br />Those that can't do often have to... preach <br /><br />To the ones staring at the sun... <br />Afraid of what you'll find if you took a look inside <br />Not just deaf and dumb... staring at the sun <br />I'm not the only one who'd rather go blind <br /><br />Intransigence is all around... military is still in town <br />Armour plated suits and ties... daddy just won't say goodbye <br />Referee won't blow the whistle God is good but will HE listen <br />I'm nearly great <br />But there's something I'm missing I left in the duty free <br />Though you never really belonged to me <br /><br />You're not the only one staring at the sun <br />Afraid of what you'd find if you stepped back inside <br />I'm not sucking my thumb I'm staring at the sun <br />Not the only one who's happy to go blind
