about
This is one of many songs written about the state of Georgia. For most of the year, it is a beautiful place. As a cold-weather person from San Francisco, summers can be hard to bear. I am very thankful to Willis Carrier for inventing the air conditioner.
lyrics
Another song of Georgia, and summertime is here
Aside from occasional thunderheads, the sky is blue and clear
I fill that popsicle mold with my own fruit-and-yogurt brew
Activity here would plummet if Willis Carrier hadn’t come through
If Mother Nature wants to tick me off, then her work is now complete
How I hate the southern summer heat
I keep hearing the Beach Boys when I turn the radio on
Ice cream is in the freezer, and the window curtains are drawn
I play a video game and go to the world with snow and ice
I know it’s just a placebo, but I still think it feels nice
The only blessing on my mind now is that the peaches are ready to eat
The one advantage to the southern summer heat
The air conditioner’s broken, and I can’t take it no more
If you need me, I’ll be lying naked on the bathroom floor
Maybe I should pack up for Portland or Tacoma
Where there’s no fear of sweat stroke or melanoma
There is a slight advantage to this humidity
The rain always makes the temperature drop, and that is fine by me
But sadly it pours all at once, and it’s gone as quick as it came
It doesn’t last throughout the day, and that’s a crying shame
It usually feels like I’m taking a nap on a sunny street
That’s every day in the southern summer heat
