lyrics

What would you do if they canceled the fair
They got it all wrong ‘cause the year went too long
And nobody there knew
What you say if they never came
You’re waiting around down at the grounds
Man, what would you and your girlfriend do?
If there’s nothing to see
Tell me who would you be
To the one you love?
If there’s nowhere to go
Could you be all alone
Like the one you love?
What would you do if they canceled the fair
‘Cause the weather turned hot
The air conditioner’s shot
No one can tell you what to do
What would you say in the heat of those days
The wind standing still like the hours you can’t fill
Man, what would you and your girlfriend do?
The ferris wheel stands high
Above all the rides
Tarantula holds out his arms
Try to keep the carousel horses alive
As the summer of you and he dies
The summer of you and he dies
