Hot Summer DayThere.s not a single breeze in the city Stifling air don.t move at all Streets completely empty around midday Everyone too weak to even crawl They.re waiting for the lights in the cooler nights Where life is really happening It.s only there, anywhere That you can find some rest I.m doing anything to get some shade But I can feel the sun is on its way You cannot run and you can.t hide and There ain.t nothing to keep the heat at bay It.s a hot summer day A parked car on the street is like an oven CD-boxes melting in the back Everyone who can turns up the air con Causing the mains to nearly crack There ain.t no memory, poetry Of anything like this It.s incomparable, probable Oh to come again I.m doing anything to get some shade But I can feel the sun is on its way You cannot run and you can.t hide and There ain.t nothing to keep the heat at bay On this hot summer day The water.s got so warm, it just can't cool you down Going for a swim has lost its fun People start sheltering under big trees Braver ones keep sizzling in the sun Everyone.s looking up, we can.t stop watching out for a change We are all waiting for, longing for Begging for some rain I.m doing anything to get some shade But I can feel the sun is on its way You cannot run and you can.t hide and There ain.t nothing to keep the heat at bay Hot summer day Anything to get some shade But I can feel the sun is on its way You cannot run and you can.t hide and There ain.t nothing to keep the heat at bay On a hot summer day |
"Das Lied zum Klimawandel", wie Roman es einmal formulierte. Entstanden im Sommer 2006, der besonders heiß war, und in
Spanien sogar zu Zusammenbrüchen des Stromnetzes führte, weil die Klimaanlagen so stark aufgedreht wurden ("causing
the mains to nearly crack"). |
