Bell X1 - Drive-By Summer lyrics

It's a drive-by summer at the end of March Sees more than it's pound of flesh City comes alive in the sunshine All loved-up, everyone flashing smiles But oh it gives and it taketh away Reset to one of those shades of grey Shackles ring on through the ages Shaping all of our many faces Still they gazed and still their wonder grew When it's gone sure who'd be looking at you Who'd be looking at you Laughing at the people in the garden centre My barber says they must all be mental All this sh** will be dead week Cos no good things last, haven't you seen? What is this, taking of pleasure In others misfortune and misadventure? Gets parked for this summer surprise All lifted by the rising tide Still they gazed and still their wonder grew When it's gone sure who'd be looking at you Who'd be looking at you
