The Summer That Never Ends Verse In the city where I live The summer doesn’t last very long So we don’t waste time And we savour every moment like a song Cause when the heat is here to stay I think about the days back then I’m wishing we could get away Just to see you laugh and smile again Chorus The days are numbered so you won’t see me around No time to waste cause summers only slowing down Leave all the people making money they can spend Cause I got better plans my friend As we run into the summeer that never ends Verse When the sun came out We stood outside to watch it melt away And I know it’s been rough But for now I know that we will be ok We ride our bikes along the path Under the sun and then the stars I look at you and you look back As we watch the people and the cars Chorus Cause when the leaves fall to the ground We have to put our toys away No more walking in the park Cause it gets too cold out in the dark Chorus

Jackie O 02:40
Jackie O As she walked on down the street ya From her head down to her feet ya She looked like Jackie Onassis Wearing cat shaped sun glasses Everybody took a gander As she walked her Bouvier Flander Chorus She looked like Jackie Onassis Wearing her cat shaped glasses oh ya She looked like Jackie Onassis Wearing her cat shaped glasses oh ya With a shift dress and block heels She was looking for good deals But all she found was a man He was laying down in the sand He was sipping a martini In a skimpy bikini Chorus Well he looked up at her And he said I, I can’t be disturbed Cause I’m enjoying the hot sun And you my dear are just not the one So she kicked sand on his body And she said boy you are haughty cause Chorus

Red Wine Black Coffee A woman who loves a man only for his looks Or one who knows a man solely from books Sometime in the sun on a white plastic chair Or at the salon where you colour your hair Chorus Red wine black coffee and shiny gold rings And man who thinks love is all about things Red wine black coffee and shiny gold rings A man who thinks love is all about things A girl who has things that point up to the sky Or boys who talk nonsense because they’re so high A silky smooth body holds eyes that are dead Or ones that are shining from in her wrinkled head Chorus
