Just a few days and you'll be back in your school
I'll be sitting round by the swimming pool
You'll be studying history and you'll be down the gym
And I'll be down the pub, probably playing pool and drinking
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
Just a few days and you'll be back in your class
Sucking up the teacher and trying to get an A pass
Trying to hide your make-up and you're trying to flash your legs
Yeah, no sympathy from your spotty friends
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through, over, over, summer romance
I can't help myself, help it if I'm older than you, over, over, summer romance
I can't help myself, help it if I'm older than you, over, over, summer romance
I need money so much, I need money so bad
And I can't be your mum, I don't want to be your dad
I'm a serious man, I got serious lusts
Gonna have to do away with this greasy kid stuff
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
I can't help myself, I can't help it if I'm older than you, over, over, summer romance
It's just a summer romance, a summer romance, and it's through
It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through, over, over, summer romance
Over, over, summer romance, over, over…
