I'm melting in the sun
This is what we call
The life
I suppose too much sun
Makes a desert, Arab say
In the middle of this country
There's a lot I wanna see

Great expectations
All we seem to need
Great expectations
All we seem to need
And when I
And when I

Don't wanna make a story up
There's enough in all we see
If it happened this morning
Tonight we'll see it on T.V.

She was twelve and knew
The world
Here boyfriend knew a dance
To this
Everybody's got advice
Take a snake
And take a ladder
This is what they call
The life
I'm melting in the sun
