lyrics

I've been four years old
at the end of a gun
scared shitless, helpless, hopeless
cuz I could not run
But I don't care
baby I don't mind
I'll take a hole in the head
over a knife in the back anytime

My skin is crawling
with memory
in the dead of the night
my bed feels like a hundred degrees
how do you know
baby how can you tell now
if the lesson you learn just burn you
like this heat from hell

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

I need to relax
get out of the grind
a-go online offline into space
and out of time
in the belly of a bird
or on the wing of the sea
just take me out of me
into you out of you into me

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Cuz I felt four years old
at the end of that gun
scared shitless, helpless, hopeless
cuz I could not run
but I don't care
oh baby, I don't mind
I'll take a hole the head
over a knife in the back anytime

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
- s-s-s-summertime
