In slow motion I'm reborn
I need a week to mow the lawn
I eat dinner with my flip-flops on
Now that the summer's here

With my chores I only flirt
Hung in my hammock, reading Kurt
Struggling to remain inert
Now that the summer's here

Now that the summer is here
I'll laze all day - my work can wait
I might behave like a firefly
And oscillate with my mate

Now that the summer is here
I'll laze all day - my work can wait
I might behave like a firefly
And oscillate with my mate

I can spare some wherewithal
Listening to Ahmad Jamal
"Poinciana" says it all
Now that the summer's here

One thing is crystal clear
I won't be going anywhere
Except my Adirondack chair
Now that the summer's here

Now... now that the summer's here
Now... now that the summer's here
Now... now that the summer's here
Now... now that the summer's here
