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 saying

Things I can't understand

It's too close for comfort this heat

Has got right out of hand

It's a cruel

Cruel summer

Leaving me here on my own

It's a cruel

Cruel summer

Now you're gone

It's a cruel

Cruel summer

Leaving me here on my own

It's a cruel

Cruel summer

Now you're gone
