Wake up halfway through the night
Throw my covers on the floor
Need more clothes
Smaller clothes
Lighter flimsy clothes
Need to swim
But I got work to do
Only time I've got
Is when it's just a little cold
Cut my hair off
Cut it all off
I don't really want to
But it's so hot and damp
Clinging to the back of my neck
So hot that even the bugs
Stop biting me
Exhausted and burning
Our only thing in common
Trying to get a tan
But the sun's so strong
I end up burning
Can't eat anything hot
Burns my tongue and my tummy
