"Celebrated Summer" lyrics

"Celebrated Summer"
(originally by Hüsker Dü)

Love and hate was in the air like pollen from a flower
Somewhere in April time, they add another hour
I guess I better think up a way to spend my time
Just when I'm ready to sit inside, it's summertime
Should I go swimming or get a friend to hang around
It's back to summer, it's back to basics, hang around
Getting drunk out on the beach or playing in a band
And getting out of school meant getting out of hand

Was this your celebrated summer?
Was that your celebrated summer?
Was this your celebrated summer?

Then the sun disintegrates between a wall of clouds
I summer where I winter at, no one is allowed there
Do you remember when the first snowfall fell?
When summer barely had a snowball's chance in hell?

Was this your celebrated summer?
Was this your celebrated summer?
Was this your celebrated summer?
Summertime
Summertime
Summertime
Summertime

Do you remember when the first snowfall fell?
Was that your celebrated summer?
