THE GIRLS OF SUMMER E.P. LYRICS

HEY!FEVER.
THE CORN WAS FUNNY - BUT I HOPE YOU WERE JOKING. I LIKE WHAT WE'RE DOING, BUT 
IT'S NEVER OUTSPOKEN. SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. 
AND I'M STILL NOT SURE THAT I SHOULD BE HONEST WITH YOU. IT WAS COOL WHEN ALL 
LEFT TOGETHER LAST NIGHT. HALF-TWO IN THE MORNING AND I SWEAR IT WAS LIGHT. YOU 
RAN UP AHEAD WE BROUGHT UP THE REAR. BY THE TIME WE ARRIVED, YOU'D DRANK ALL OUR 
BEER. THE SKIN WAS PEELING OFF OF MY BEARDY FACE. AND I USED MY BEST SHAMPOO ON 
MY PUBES JUST IN CASE. THEN I HAD A QUICK TUG SO IT WOULD LAST LONGER. I WENT TO 
MEET YOU FOR LUNCH BUT WE HAD SOMETHING STRONGER. YOU TIED BACK YOUR HAIR , YOUR 
PAIR IN MY FACE AND I PASSED IT AGAIN 'CAUSE I CAN'T TAKE THE PACE. THE COME 
DOWN WAS GENTLE BUT ONCE IT FELT NICE. I'M GETTING A HAIRCUT AND I WANT YOU'RE 
ADVICE. IN A ROOM FULL OF PEOPLE, WE WERE UNDER THE COVERS. OUR KISSES WERE 
SILENT AND OUR HANDS WERE OUR LOVERS. AND THEN THEY PANICKED WHEN YOUR MUM 
ARRIVED AT THE DOOR. THE TAMPERING WAS FUN, BUT I THINK I WANT MORE. YOU SAID 
THAT I'M OKAY BUT YOU'RE JUST HAVING FUN. WHEN WE WERE IN WITH THE GIRLS AND 
GETTING DRUNK IN THE SUN. I WOULD OF TRIED TO TALK YOU ROUND BUT YOU KNOW I'M 
NOT A BELIEVER. YOU NOTICED MY EYES WERE RED. BUT THAT WAS JUST WITH HAYFEVER. 
OKAY I'LL JUST AGREE TO, SEE YOU WHEN I SEE YOU. OKAY THEN I'LL AGREE TO, JUST 
SEE YOU WHEN I SEE YOU. (REPEAT) "WENT OUT FOR THE WEEKEND IT LASTED FOREVER. 
GOT HIGH WITH OUR FRIENDS - ITS OFFICIALLY SUMMER" 

GIRLS OF SUMMER.
WE'RE SITTING DRINKING FRUITY ALCO-POPS FROM PINT GLASSES WITH ICE AND WATCHING 
THE GIRLS OF SUMMER. WITH THEIR BARE LEGS AND TRAINERS AND THEIR WHITE 
STRAP-LINES FROM YESTERDAY'S TOP BENEATH TODAY'S. BLOWING ACROSS THERE PEELING 
SHOULDERS ON THEIR WAY TO THE BAR. LATER I'LL PUT ON A TAPE IN THE BATHROOM AND 
ATTEMPT TO SHAVE WHAT WAS HALF CUT AND ENDING UP SLASHING OPEN MY CHEEK OR 
NICKING MY LIP. SPRAY ON SOME POOF JUICE AND GO TO THE PARK WITH MY ECONOMY 
CIDER I DON'T THINK I'LL NEED A JACKET. IT'LL STILL BE BRIGHT WHEN THE CARRY 
OUTS ARE FINISHED. AND WE HEAD TO THE PUB TO GET EVERYONE ELSE. LEAVING OUR 
EMPTIES KICKED BEHIND A BUSH. WE'LL GET THEM IN THERE AND CASUALLY SAUNTER INTO 
THE BOGS AND SWALLOW. AND GET TAXI'S DOWN TO A CLUB, WITH ME SALUTING MAGPIES 
THROUGH THE WINDOW ON THE WAY IN THE HOPE I'LL GET A SHAG. BUT I'LL WAKE UP 
CLAMPED AROUND A GIRL I KNOW FULLY CLOTHED ON SOMEONES COUCH HAVING BARELY SLEPT 
FOR TWO HOURS. ALL SWEATY AND THOUGHTFUL AND NEEDING AFFECTION. AND THEN YOU'LL 
WAKE UP. AND THE FIRST THING WE'LL DO IS TO MAKE PLANS TO GET PISSED. SO WE'LL 
SIT IN THE PUB AND WATCH THE GIRLS OF SUMMER.

ONE DAY, AFTER SCHOOL.
I SAID WITH ME AROUND SHE'D NEVER COME TO HARM. AND THEN SHE TOOK A FORK AND 
STABBED HERSELF IN THE ARM. SHE USED TO WANK ME OFF BUT I COULD NEVER HEAT HER 
UP. AND SHE USED TO TELL ALL HER FRIENDS THAT I BEAT HER UP. I WENT ROUND TO HER 
HOUSE ONE DAY, AFTER SCHOOL. SHE'D BOUGHT ME THIS STEEL LADYBIRD THING, IT WAS 
REALLY COOL. AND THEN SHE SAID SHE THOUGHT THERE WAS NO FUTURE FOR US. SHE 
CHUCKED ME THEN, CHUCKED ME OUT, AND I CRIED ALL OVER THE BUS. AND THAT SUNDAY 
WAS MY FIRST EXPERIENCE OF FEELING ALONE. WHEN SHE WOULDN'T ANSWER HER DOOR AND 
SHE WOULDN'T ANSWER HER PHONE. SO I WENT ROUND AND BANGED ON THE DOOR, I THOUGHT 
I HAD SO MUCH TO SAY. AND THEN THE PIGS CAME AND TOLD ME TO BE ON MY WAY. IT'D 
BE NICE TO SAY THEN THAT THAT'S WHERE THE STORY ENDS. BUT SHE CAME WAY WITH SOME 
PISH ABOUT STILL BEING FRIENDS. AND SHE SEEMED SINCERE SO I THOUGHT I'D GIVE HER 
A CHANCE. AND IT WAS OKAY UNTIL I FOUND HER WITH HER HAND DOWN SOMEONE ELSES 
PANTS. I PULLED THEM APART, IT WAS ALL I COULD THINK TO DO. THEN ANOTHER GUY SHE 
KNEW FLEW TO HER RESCUE. HE TRIED TO KICK MY HEAD IN TO IMPRESS HER, CAUSE HE 
WAS TRYING TO POKE HER. I CAME HOME GREETING AND BLEEDING. AND MY MUM THREATENED 
TO GO ROUND TO HER HOUSE AND CHOKE HER.
