I'm no alarmist I'm only new here
Wide eyed and quiet intimidated too
why can't I harness my dreams of silver
no need to tarnish them leave them to themselves

Symbols and rituals mind or matter
baroque or minimal, sandals, socks, or shoes
symbols and rituals spray or splatter
some individuals think in scattered clues

Sharp like a razor blade dull as weather
Bright as a meteor break just like one too
smart in a lazy way tough as leather
people are crazy they can be kindly too

Symbols and rituals facts and figures
one or the other they'll lose you in the truth
endless residual referenda
some individuals offer nothing new

your new endeavor
hasn't lasted ninety days
you'll be broke if you're not clever
holes in your pocket
and all your means are someone's ways
so find your own while you still can
here you are and all your plans
they just don't matter anymore
cause summer is over
summer is over
if the summer's over and you're still here
it's time to salvage your career

I'm no alarmist I'm no believer
all in a day I'll decide and forget what's true
vote for the pharmacist your reliever
vote for the pharmacist he will pull you through

Symbols and rituals in your marrow
lots of misfortune and some good fortune too
Symbols and rituals slings and arrows
some individuals think in red and blue

there's thirteen forevers
all in ninety winter days
you'll freeze if you're not clever
your fire is fading
and the future starts whenever
so make your choice while you still can
here you are and all your plans
just won't matter anymore
when winter's over
winter is over
if the winter is over and you're still here
get out while the coast is clear
