New Day Rising (1985), SST Records.

Love and hate was in the air, like pollen from a flower
Somewhere in April time, they add another hour.

I guess I'd better think up a way to spend my time
Just when I'm ready to sit inside, it's summer time
Should I go fishing or get a friend to hang around
It's back to summer, back to basics, hang around.

Getting drunk out on the beach, or playing in a band
And getting out of school meant getting out of hand.

Was this your celebrated summer? Was that your celebrated summer?

Then the sun disintegrates between a wall of clouds
I summer where I winter at, and no one is allowed there.

Do you remember when the first snowfall fell
When summer barely had a snowball's chance in Hell?

Was this your celebrated summer? Was this your celebrated summer?

  • Since 1984 i thik about them like a leader for hard core and social oriented band,off course they was not commercial music,but i love them this way!!!

  • I remember when I first heard this on the radio on my way to some stupid gig......stopped me dead in my tracks....so different....so good. The summer season does not officially start until I turn up my guitar and play along.

  • Greatest song of all time. Indisputable. That is all.

  • Played this song for more than one person. One guy said that he doesn't like this type of music but it's the best of itskind he'd ever heard.
