Cold In The Summer

Dan Mangan


You said it, I'm losing touch

The opposite of every kid out on the run
I can’t stand it, I don't want to become
The kind of guy to catch a cold in the summer

Daily shaver, coupon saver
Collect the paper, wander the neighborhood
If this is real life, what was all that racket before?
Careful what you sorta kinda ask for

You said it, I'm losing touch
The opposite of every kid out on the run
I can’t stand it, I don't want to become
The kind of guy to catch a cold in the summer
In the summer, in the summer
I ain't gonna catch a cold in the summer
If it's not one thing, it's another
But I ain't gonna catch a cold in the summertime

Sweet cul-de-sacherine, top up the margarine
Universal A.D.D., helicopter parenting
I don't know where the gig is, I don't know if it’s cool
But I still get lost in it and I got more to lose
[Chorus]
You said it, I’m losing touch
The opposite of every kid out on the run
I can't stand it, I don’t want to become
The kind of guy to catch a cold in the summer
In the summer, in the summer
I ain't gonna catch a cold in the summer
If it's not one thing, it's another
But I ain’t gonna catch a cold in the summertime
In the summer, in the summer
I ain't gonna catch a cold in the summer
If it's not one thing, it's another
But I ain't gonna catch a cold in the summertime

(I might make it through these quarter-life blues)
