I walked home to the sun
I couldn't ride another one
I thought a lot along the lines
And I've been fooled about all night
Wiped clean always by midnight
Wasn't it like an idiot summer...
Three, four peaks all I could see
In the morning it's a hundred and ten degrees
But I like the goddamn heat
I lie awake half the night
Autumn is coming it seems like it's in sight
All the autumn that you can see
All the autumn that you can see
It's growing darker like the trees
But if all the trees should fall
All the bugs would crawl in my sleep
and then it's cold
It's growing darker like the trees
But if all the trees should fall
All the bugs would crawl in my sleep
and then it's cold
There's no telling I was so confused
I try but I can't help you choose
Tucson is so far away
I lie awake half the night
Autumn is coming it seems like it's in sight
Wasn't it like an idiot summer...
The lyrics IDIOT SUMMER of GIN BLOSSOMS is also present in the album Dusted (1989)
Gin Blossoms è una band alternative rock formatasi nel 1987 a Tempe, Arizona. Il nome deriva da una fotografia di W.C. Fields con la didascalia "W.C. Fields with gin blossoms", che faceva riferimento al naso dell'attore apparentemente devastato dall'alcol, ma in realtà era una condizione cutanea nota come rosacea. La band ha pubblicato tre album e ha avuto diversi successi a metà degli anni '90, prima di sciogliersi nel 1997. Cinque anni dopo, nel 2002, la band si è riunita, ha rilasciato un DVD, ha ripreso i tour e ha promesso un quarto album. Major Lodge Victory, il primo album dei Gin Blossoms in dieci anni, è stato pubblicato l'8 agosto 2006 sull'etichetta Hybrid Recordings. Tra le loro canzoni più rappresentative ricordiamo "Hey Jealousy", "Found Out About You" e "Follow You Down".
