Hot summer streets and the pavements are burning
I sit around Trying to smile but the air is so heavy and dry
Strange voices are sayin' What did they say
Things I can't understand It's too close for comfort
this heat has got right out of hand
It's a cruel, cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, it's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you've gone
The city is crowded my friends are away and I'm on my own
It's too hot to handle so I gotta get up and go !
