"Summer is the Champion"

Honey wax
Melt it down
Make your heart
Molten somehow
Turn the fields of stone
To magma

Swinging out
On the breeze
I hear you singing
You're coming home
I can see you now

Summer is the champion
Let's get busy in the grass
Thank you for melting down your
Honey wax

Thought I needed
Rodent teeth
Tough iron filings
Diamonds cut
Bright steely shining
All the trouble that I've seen
Came on their wings
I threw them away
To rust in the rain
(Don't search ‘em out)

Summer is the champion…
