Lyrics
May Day and counting pennies
just trying to leave this town again
But wherever I might roam
these thoughts, they chase me down again
This summer, old excuses
will not keep me from feeling down
Oh no, I've had my fill
the summer still, it makes its rounds again
In my own Independence
here lie my chains, they speak my lies
(Oh, say can you see
by the dawn's early light
the slave that is me)
I raise my banner high
but my freedom cuts me down the side
(God shed His rage on me
to crown my good w i th otherhood)
This summer old excuse
will not keep me from feeling down
Oh no, I've had my fill
the summer still, it makes its rounds again
One taste of your sweet juices
is what this summer's all about
This bucket taps your well
but I can never tell
when the bottom will drop out
And one day, the bottom will drop out
My Sysiphusian labors
roll winter up this hill again
Stave off May Day revolution
but these thoughts, they roll me down again
(repeat chorus)
