The Beautiful Summer

So they left him to die slowly
Said the drugs he sold weren't worth it
Well some people have been stabbed for less
But then you don't go to Hackney for your holidays

Here comes the summer
Here comes the sun
The beautiful summer
So you better run
You run for cover
To get out of the rain
And then you watch as the water
Pours into the drain

You keep on walking
You know it's just around the corner
You can hear the sound of laughter
Being suddenly replaced
By the beat of rotor blades as they circle
They know that somethings up they're searching
Now in the distance fires are burning
And there's a storm about to break

Here comes the summer
Here comes the sun
The beautiful summer
So you better run
You run for cover
To get out of the frame
And then you watch as the water
Puts out all the flames

There is no wrong or right
But you can't plead the truth
There's just a thin blue line
And what is shatter proof
You've got a sea of glass
And a bucket and spade
But you don't go to Hackney for your holidays

Here comes the summer
Here comes the sun
The beautiful summer
So you have some fun yeah
You have some fun
