HANG IN THE HEAT

Jeff Rosenstock


I don’t have to go to work today
It’s Saturday
Let’s have some fun and hang out in the heat

I wanna pull you off the ledge
Get down from there!
Stop listening to this exhausting world!
Don’t wanna see you wallowin’
It does nothing
Get out your head and
Call me on the telephone

I don’t have to go to work today
It’s Saturday
Let’s have some fun and hang out in the heat

The radio reverberates
A song I know
A song I hate
But I don’t really mind
An underscore appropriate
For chances missed
As the Sun sets and
Colors my unnecessary drive

Oh, yeah! Gonna space out like a rocket ship tonight
Oh, yeah! Gonna play games on the internet tonight
Oh, yeah! I don’t wanna just feel like an idiot tonight
Oh, yeah! I wanna feel good for a little bit
I wanna feel good for a little bit
I wanna feel good for a little bit

The dogs all bark at 8 PM
The neighbors scream
The sports team wins and
Fireworks explode

A refund on a present grim
A new week on the horizon
A thousand future lazy nights at home
