Summer Babe Lyrics

Ice baby,
I saw your girlfriend and she was
Eating her fingers like they’re just another meal
But she waits there
In the levee washes
Mixin’ cocktails with a plastic-tipped cigar

My eyes stick to all the shiny roses
You wear on the protein delta strip
In an abandoned house but I will wait there
I’ll be waiting forever...
I’ll wait and wait and wait...

Minerals, ice deposits daily, dropped off
The first shiny robe
I’ve got a lot of things I want to sell, but
Not here, babe-- torture

Every time I sit around I find I’m shot
Every time I sit around I find I’m shot
Every time I turn around I find I’m shot
Every time I sit around I find I’m shot
Every time every time...
You’re my... summer babe
Summer babe

Correct lyrics:

Ice baby, I saw your girlfriend and she was eating her fingers like they're just another meal But she waits there In the levee wash mixing cocktails with a plastic-tipped cigar

My eyes stick To all the shiny robes You wear on the protein delta strip In an abandoned houseboat, I will wait there I'll be waiting forever I'm waiting waiting waiting waiting Go!

Minerals, ice deposits daily Drop off the first shiny robe I've got a lot of things I want to sell but not here, babe you took 'em all

Every time I sit around I find I'm shot Every time I sit around I find I'm shot Every time I sit around Every time I sit around Every time, every time, every time, every time...

You're my summer babe Summer babe

Great song from the classic 'Slanted & Enchanted' album. Stephen Malkmus is a genius.

Great song. My original liking of the song was in the same vein as Picklejuice. It grew on me after many listens

This song makes me think of Jesse James and how he died.

Again hesitation, the babe does not know it all.
