about

A day to celebrate the huge mess you made the day before.

lyrics

Who is gonna clean this up?
Picking through the wicks of Roman candles.
Who is gonna take this on?
Sifting through these whispered short breath tangles.

Cause it's hot, and you're gone, and I can't recall your number
And there is no firework light
And I'm lonely as a watermelon rind
On the 5th of July

Which of us will give this up
When we've got no carrot left to dangle
Bring to me October's wares
I'm falling all to pieces in summer's strangle

Cause it's hot, and you're gone, and I can't recall your number
And there is no firework light
And I'm lonely as a watermelon rind
On the 5th of July

July---
You know I think about you all the time
July---
You know I think about you all the time

Cause it's hot, and you're gone, and I can't recall your number
And there is no firework light
And I'm lonely as a watermelon rind
On the 5th of July
