Summer is as summer does
and summer never will.
So come and spend your summer day
listening to my tale.
I never ever leave this house,
but often I prepare,
for time is time, and time is now,
the summer time is here.
Summer is as summer does,
and summer always will.
So go and spend you summer days
chasing the winter chill.
I never ever leave this house,
the temperature is fair,
for heat is heat, this house is cool,
I loathe the summer air.
Summer is as summer does,
the season to cut hair,
I've chosen now to pursue a dream,
Antarctica, Beware.

Summer is usually all about fun in the sun, but no one ever admits that more often then not the heat is uncomfortable. Plus, I always wanted to go to Antarctica.
