  • This is joy, this is summer
    Keep alive, stay alive
    Got your metal on, we're alone
    Making sweet love, takin' time
    'Til God strikes us
    That's a pretty fucking fast year flew by
    That's a pretty long third gear in this car
    Glidin' on the five
    The deer run across, kill the headlights
    Pretty fucking, underneath moonlight now
    Pretty fucking, sunrise in sight
    In comes the morning, haunting us with the beams
    Solstice ain't as far as it used to be
    It begins to blur, we get older (blur)
    Summer's not as long as it used to be
    Everyday counts like crazy (smoke, haze)
    Wanna get soaked?
    Wanna film a tape on the speed boat?
    We smell of Californication
    Strike a pose
    Everything grows in the Congo, everything grows
    Ooh, can you come when I call again?

    On comes the evening, gold seeking ends
    Piece in my hands worth twice than a friend
    And two limbs over shoulder, carried away
    Because I'm stronger and the Congo is dim (smoke)
    In comes the morning, ah (smoke)
    In comes the morning, ah (haze) Writer/s: Charles Christopher Breaux, Kendrick Duckworth, Ommas Keith-Graham, Tyler Gregory Okonma
