[Verse 1]
I read 17 magazines
In 24 hours
Death wish daydreamer
I slip in the shower

Cause when I sit alone
Touch the devil's hand
Summertime vertigo
Fall I can't stand

[Verse 2]
Now at 26 I'm tired
My white flag's on fire
Gonna burn your bad house down
Burn it with a smile

Cause in the shapes of our lives
We're cornered by size
Guided by choices
That keep me in at night

[Chorus]
Summertime vertigo
Summertime vertigo
(Whoa-oh)
Summertime vertigo
Summertime vertigo
(Woah-oh-oh)
[Verse 3]
I need to find me a lover
But they're all undercover
Spies in my head
Spies that want me dead

Cause when I sit alone
Touch the devil's hand
Summertime vertigo
Fall I can't stand

[Chorus]
Summertime vertigo
Summertime vertigo
(Whoa-oh)
Summertime vertigo
Summertime vertigo
(Woah-oh-oh)

[Outro]
I read 17 magazines
In 24 hours
