Summer came in on a Sunday
Hit me like a drunk on the subway, oh
Baby, I basked in the violence
Tulips and vines and the violets
Took me on down to her basement
Underneath the jungle pavement, oh
Kissed me like I was dying
How did she know I've been trying?

Hanging on the words that I'd say
Maybe she was meant for Broadway, oh
Tell me how it was before me
Tell me, did she get so lonely?
All in all, all in all
It was helpless, helpless

Now, what the fuck is up with my life?
Now I wanna make her my wife
I wanna grow old and crazy
Give all the money to the babies
Now I wanna waste my prime
Giving her all my time
She's gonna hang me sideways
She's gonna eat me someday
All in all, all in all
It was helpless, helpless
All in all, all in all
It was helpless, it was helpless
