Saratoga Summer Song - Kate & Anna McGarrigle[00:00:00]
We were nice young adults[00:00:14]
We proved ourselves we showed results[00:00:17]
Like cats and dogs who'd undergone a fix[00:00:20]
Fashionably cynical[00:00:28]
And love to us was clinical[00:00:30]
Long ago we gave up getting our kicks[00:00:34]
But the summer sun came down on all[00:00:40]
And it was fun to feel and fun to fall[00:00:44]
Into a sloppy teenage scene[00:00:48]
Gossiping and having crushes[00:00:55]
Dimming lights to hide our blushes[00:00:57]
My god I thought I was sixteen[00:01:01]
All those happy hours[00:01:08]
Turn the green buds into flowers[00:01:14]
This crazy summer is over[00:01:21]
No more bees no more clover[00:01:27]
And the rope at the swimming hole swings by the weight of the wind[00:01:33]
Skidmore girls come back to town[00:01:43]
All the freaks head underground[00:01:50]
And we who are free swing like the rope from that tree[00:01:55]
We danced and played some tennis[00:02:05]
Made love with fred our dentist[00:02:08]
We drank lots of beer and ate a whole lot of food[00:02:11]
We put our bodies to the sun[00:02:17]
Forgot to see in everyone[00:02:20]
We swam dressed and we swam nude[00:02:23]
And the new york city ballet dancers[00:02:29]
Danced for all the neighborhood cancers[00:02:32]
Celebrating their birthdays in the sun[00:02:35]
And all that sun brought dope and lust[00:02:42]
We weren't too smart we had a bust[00:02:45]
But nobody slept alone[00:02:48]
Nighttime into day[00:02:55]
Summer went away[00:03:01]
This crazy summer is past now[00:03:08]
Sunrise to sunset is fading fast now[00:03:14]
And all I want is to see the rope on that tree[00:03:20]
So bring back the bagels bring back the lox[00:03:29]
Let's have another vernal equinox[00:03:36]
Bring back the laughs bring back the tears[00:03:41]
Bring back the beers bring back the dope and the rope[00:03:44]
