Lyrics of My Own Summer by Deftones
intro
Hey you, big star
Tell me when it′s over (cloud)
verse
Hey you, big mood
Guide me to shelter
'Cause I′m through when the two hits the six
And it's summer (cloud)
chorus
(Come) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(Shove) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(The sun) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(Aside) shove it aside!
hook
I think God is moving its tongue
There's no crowd in the street and no sun
(In my own summer)
verse
The shade is a tool, a device, a savior
(See) I try and look up to the sky
But my eyes burn (cloud)
chorus
(Come) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(Shove) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(The sun) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(Aside) shove it aside!
(Come) shove, shove it, shove it!
(Shove) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(The sun) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(Aside) shove it aside!
hook
I think God′s moving its tongue
There′s no crowd in the streets and no sun
(In my own summer)
chorus
(Come) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(Shove) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(The sun) shove it, shove it, shove it!
(Aside) shove it aside!
