I don't understand summer people
I don't understand the way they smile
They wake up in the morning full of life
Waiting for the sun to rise
I'm an October boy
I always look forward to the shortening of the days
The leaves they turn and the people's faces fall
I can see the whole world slowing down for the autumn
And then the winter with so much peace
People always move slower in the darkening light
I look up at the grey sky I know it'll be alright
I'm an October boy
It's intertwined to my soul
It's when my senses cool and my vision gets cold
Awaiting the end of the long days of sun
I've always known that I would die in the autumn
I would make it through the summer
But the winter the winter is where I want to be
I don't mind the summer people
I admit they have the right to be here
I know about tolerance and people's equality
But I just can't stand their fucking company
