Welcome, ladies and gentlemen
Old friends and new!
Presenting now,
The moment we've waited three years,
Several name changes,
A move halfway across the world
And a global pandemic for.
Without further ado,
A true labor of love,
Summer Grays,
by Vanilla Coke!

sunny smiles
boys and girls
wave goodbye
for miles and miles
glad you’re here
glad they're gone
glad that’s not
what i’ve become
i know i don’t need to be
there for everybody
still i’ll be stretched thin
by my own wish and whim
but when your legs give out
i’ll carry you
when the music stops
i’ll take you home
but after all this time
i still feel alone
cause no ones ever there
when i need to go
please don’t leave me behind
please don’t lose my name
all my shirts are blue
so, now who’s to blame?
(solo)
stop. 2. 1, 2 3,
everybody now!
when your legs give out
i’ll carry you
when the music stops
i’ll take you home
but after all this time
i still feel alone
cause no ones ever there
when i need to go
thank you for coming to the show
i love you more more than you know
if you’re in need or need some care
you know that i’ll be there

I’m sick and tired of the back of your head
Gotta ask you out before I wind up dead (oh yeah)
Maybe just maybe we could have a chance
But not before I ask you to dance (oh yeah)
Oh baby baby I’m running out of time
So I gotta say something before the end of the line (Oh!)
Here we go again just another day where
I don’t say nothin’ no I don’t say nothin’ (No!)
I see you every day bet you haven’t even noticed me!
Lock eyes and wave oh I wish it could be could it be?
Oh baby baby years about to end
So hang on a minute while I find out how to press send
I have so much to say
But so little time
Ask you on a date
‘Cause I wanna make you mine (Oh yeah)
Oh, I wanna make you mine (Oh yeah)
Oh, I wanna make you mine (Oh yeah)
Oh!
(Alright, here we go)
1, 2, 3, 4!
Every time I see you I’m about to burst
‘Cause I’m sure you wouldn’t like me yeah I know I’m the worst
And I know I don’t show it but I know I'm gonna blow it
Yeah there’s no point in trying ‘cause I’ll always end up crying (oh yeah)
(So uh, have you seen any good, um, movies lately? No that's fucking stupid, God fucking damn it!)
I have so much to say
But so little time
Ask you on a date
‘Cause I wanna make you mine (Oh yeah)
Oh, I wanna make you mine (Oh yeah)
Oh, I wanna make you mine (Oh yeah)
Oh!
Oh.

("do you want to count us in?
...that was a weird count up."
"yeah that was a really weird count up")
we haven’t had war in so long
it’s given me too much time to think
about all the things that could go wrong
we both look so pretty in pink
but what if i lose my mind
or what if i run out of time?
i have to say
before i go
unless i
stay—
live it while it’s happening
you might only have a few more years
the politicians should leave this town;
their money, in exchange for tears
if i’ve got to go
i’m
glad i got to know you
could you ever know
the feeling of
losing the floor below you
i’ve got a year
i’ve got a day
i’ve got you and me and you no more!
i have to say
before i go
unless i
(No! No!)
i have to say—
before i go—
unless i—
stay—
("cool" "i noticed you switched—)

where can the moon go
back behind your eyes
where can the sun go
in the night?
(ooh)
your heart will save me
and my heart will hold you
your heart will save me
and my heart will hold you
the rain wont stop for anyone
ill be your lighthouse in the storm
though i'm far i am never gone
sail on, sail on!
your heart will save me
and my heart will hold you
your heart will save me
and my heart will hold you
we’re facing ever changing tides
but you know how to reach my line
you've seen my face in shades of blue
and don't forget this song is done
'cause of you
(solo)
warm glow
hold me tight and don’t let go
save the world
you lovely scorpio
where can you go?

all hail the winter breeze as it comes and goes
oh happy flowers in the spring, come out and grow
but what am i supposed to do
if summer comes around to mess around with me?
Staring up at ceiling fans that don't exist to pass the time
watching all the weekends fall right off of the calendar,
i don’t feel fine!
but what am i supposed to do
if nobody’s in town to mess around with me?
i ran a mile in bed today
i'm tired of these summer grays
i appreciate that i had the break
but now i wish it’d end
so i can see my friends again
stayin' up to fall asleep
never really feeling neat
roasting in my boxer briefs
oh boy this boys boredom just can’t be beat
but what am i supposed to do
if someone comes around
but i missed the bus at 3?
i ran a mile in bed today
i'm tired of these summer grays
i appreciate that i had the break
but now i wish it’d end
so i can see my friends
together 'til the end
and we can go to school
where nobody is cool
and we can do it all
again
(again)
(Surprise!)
