Summer is the Killer

from The Sea is Coming Out of the Sea by Bill White

/

lyrics

So dont come to me
With songs of fallen leaves
And regret

Dark rays of the sun
Smoked out the Kodachrome
And left two silhouettes

Summer is the killer
Autumn is a magic trick
Leaves are changing color
It was summer made them sick
The flowers were so eager
To burst thir buds in summer sun
Dont put the blame on autumn
It was summer held the gun

Th great Houdini
Picked two flowers with his teeth
And let them slip
They lay half dead
Beneath the sun. When August came
The flame tarnished their silk

Summer is the killer
Autumn is a magic trick
Leaves are changing color
It was summer made them sick
The flowers were so eager
To burst thir buds in summer sun
Dont put the blame on autumn
It was summer held the gun

So let those Autumn leaves drift by your widow
But please dont let the seasons take the blame
The flowers carried them to snowy rivers
Were dying long before the autumn came

Summer is the killer
Autumn is a magic trick
Leaves are changing color
It was summer made them sick
The lovers were so eager
To burst their buds in summer sun
Dont put the blame on autumn
It was summer held the gun
