Ode to Sonny and Emily

(sung to the tune of
“Summer Lovin" from "Grease")
 

Summer lovin’, didn’t have me a blast.

Summer lovin’, my boyfriend’s an ass.

I met a gangsta’, he was so fly.

I met a med student, she made me cry.
 

Summer days, wasted away.

To uh-oh, those summer nights.

Tell me more, tell me more.

Where did summer go wrong?

Tell me more, tell me more.

Lovin' him wasn't really "the bomb".
 

She hit on me, she looked so great.

I fantasized while he made me wait. 

I went cuckoo, she got me a shrink.

He went off, just like a freak.

Summer sun, my boyfriend's undone.

But uh-oh, those summer nights.
 

Tell me more, tell me more.

Was it love at first sight?

Tell me more, tell me more.

It was more like a fight.

Interrupted in the guesthouse.

Told the kids not to go there to play.
 

Summer fling, don’t mean a thing.

But uh-oh, those summer nights.

Tell me more, tell me more.

Our love was strong, but he fell apart.

Tell me more, tell me more. 

Caught me diggin' way after dark.
 

He was sexy, but he took it too far.

She got drunk down at the bar.

He was handsome, moody, and mean.

She was fine, barely out of her teens.
 

Summer heat, boy and girl meet.

But uh-oh those summer nights.

Tell me more, tell me more.

I was blind, he wasn't for me.

Tell me more, tell me more.

Her brother stole my business from me.
 

I got help, that where it ends.

So I told her, we’d still be friends.

Wonder who she’s bangin’ now?

Summer dreams, ran out of steam.

But uh-oh those summer nights!
