summertime rolls

fell into
a sea of grass
and disappeared among
the shady blades
children all
ran over me
screaming tag
you are the one!

he trips her as
her sandles fail
she says stop
i'm a girl...
whose finger nails are made
of mothers pearl...
yellow buttercup
helicopter
orange buttercat
chasing after
the crazy bee
mad about somebody...

me and my girlfriend
don't wear no shoes
her nose is painted pepper
sunlight...
she loves me
i mean it's serious
as serious can be...

she sings a song and
i listen to what it says
if you want a friend
feed any animal...
there was so much space
i cut me a piece
with some fine wine
it brought peace to my mind
in the summertime
and it rolled
summer...oh...
oh...the summertime rolls

me and my girlfriend
don't wear no clothes
you know her nose
her nose is pepper
sunlight...
i love her
i mean it's serious
as serious can be...
