80 Degrees Lyrics

Sunny old day, and I'm inside.
There's only one thing that makes me hide...
Last night I was hot and high and smiling like a freak.
Someone turned on overdrive and told me not to speak...
Or kiss their girlfriend's cheek. 80 degrees, the air is dry.
You've got a disease, but you can try...
To take today and do your best to make it on your own.
Someone stole the evidence to all the things you're prone.
Don't you miss the palm trees, (and) making love beneath the sun?
Don't you miss the rolling waves,
Eternal summer fun?
And now your wrinkles show off all the drugs you've done.
Well, no one said, 'impossible'...
No one said, 'you're done'.
Any old way that you can get here from there with no regrets.
I am just a momma's boy and you're the girl this time..
Hanging on in desperation...hanging on my wall...
Hangin' five feet tall.
Sunny old day, and I'm inside.
There's only one thing that makes me hide...
Last night I was hot and high and smiling like a freak.
Someone turned on overdrive.

A Rite For The Innocent You

Sunny old day, and I'm inside. 
There's only one thing that makes me hide... 
Last night I was hot and high and smiling like a freak. 
Someone turned on overdrive and told me not to speak... 
Or kiss their girlfriend's cheek. 80 degrees, the air is dry. 
You've got a disease, but you can try... 
To take today and do your best to make it on your own. 
Someone stole the evidence to all the things you're prone. 
Don't you miss the palm trees, (and) making love beneath the sun? 
Don't you miss the rolling waves, 
Eternal summer fun? 
And now your wrinkles show off all the drugs you've done. 
Well, no one said, 'impossible'... 
No one said, 'you're done'. 
Any old way that you can get here from there with no regrets.
I am just a momma's boy and you're the girl this time.. 
Hanging on in desperation...hanging on my wall... 
Hangin' five feet tall. 
Sunny old day, and I'm inside. 
There's only one thing that makes me hide...
Last night I was hot and high and smiling like a freak. 
Someone turned on overdrive.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
