Sort of wonder why No one said a word Don't you like it on the sly Don't you like it 'till it hurts Have I been on your mind What's a voice without a song Something in your head You've been fighting all the long I don't want to say it The news is not so good We'll never get away And even if we could We'd just play the tambourine Around an open flame Oversleep and burn To be back in the game 'Cause summer never comes Nowhere near high noon And winter never comes Nor the harvest moon Raw sugar I don't want to die Living in a high rise grave My baby come home Same black day High rise grave Raw sugar I don't want to die Living in a high rise grave My baby come home Same black day High rise grave No I'm not complaining Yes it could be worse Ferment on the wish bone Match the lips to the purse Neighborhood's a runway Fry the ass and thighs Dirty diamond dealers Pushed behind the ire's And summer never comes Nowhere near high noon And winter never comes Nor the harvest moon Raw sugar I don't want to die Living in a high rise grave My baby come home Same black day High rise grave Raw sugar I don't want to die Living in a high rise grave My baby come home Same black day High rise grave Still I wear the red dress Paint my toes and twirl Take it back to old times Back when I was still a girl 'Cause now I'm all baboon boys Cootchie cootchie coo Sort of wonder why I missed a kiss for you 'Cause summer never comes Same black day High rise grave Winter never comes Summer never comes Summer never comes Summer never comes
