The clouds are building around here again
And I think it could be a chance for some rain
I think it might make a nice change
Cause it's been hot and dry here for so long
Yeah it's been hot and dry here for so long
That deafening sound of summer has returned
And the molasses smell as the sugar cane burns
The thrill and the fear of a heavy downpour
And getting stuck on the highway in the middle of jack all
And getting stuck on the highway in the middle of jack all
Getting drunk and waking up with a lobstered skin
From the gap in the curtain where the sun scorched in
Making love in a pool of sweat at 2am
And hearing radio songs about Christmas and snow
We're singing songs about places we will never know
We're singing songs about places we will never go
