First Day Of Summer

seasons will change and so will you
i've seen the signs a million times before
you try so hard to keep your cool
what's the matter with today
you're always planning somethin
and that something's always twenty
years away
come on now it's the first day of summer
please don't let it slip by just try
to sqeeze all of the life out of it
this is a summer day
but i thought that i heard you say
it's just another day watch it go by
the summer's starting so
why aren't you
we're getting older every day and
i can't stay here getting old
with you
did you ever notice
that the summer's almost gone just
when it starts
pleaes don't stop
here comes summer
the summer's starting so
whey aren't you
we're getting older every day and
i can't stay here getting old
with you.....
don't stop
please don't stop
i've seen the signs a million times before
you try so hard to keep your cool
what's the matter with today
you're always planning somethin
and that something's always twenty
years away
come on now it's the first day of summer
please don't let it slip by just try
to sqeeze all of the life out of it
this is a summer day
but i thought that i heard you say
it's just another day watch it go by
the summer's starting so
why aren't you
we're getting older every day and
i can't stay here getting old
with you
did you ever notice
that the summer's almost gone just
when it starts
pleaes don't stop
here comes summer
the summer's starting so
whey aren't you
we're getting older every day and
i can't stay here getting old
with you.....
don't stop
please don't stop
First Day Of Summer
Released by the influential post-punk band Screeching Weasel, "First Day Of Summer" stands as a quintessential example of the group's signature sound. Characterized by its frenetic tempo, distorted guitar work, and rapid-fire vocal delivery, the track embodies the chaotic energy that defined the early 1980s punk revival. As a staple of their discography, the song captures the raw, unpolished aesthetic that Screeching Weasel brought to the genre, influencing countless subsequent acts in the noise and hardcore punk scenes. The recording serves as a testament to the band's ability to create high-intensity music that remains relevant decades after its initial release.
