Pleeeez
Pleeeez… stop your whining and complaining
Agreed, dog days of summer are straining
Let's make the most of these hot sunny days
Might as well call friends, be entertaining
Come and sit in our air conditioned house
Remember your swimsuit and grab your spouse
We'll pretend we're on a resort island
Cool off and have some fun at our clubhouse
Let's appreciate the sun from inside
Where from the scorching weather we can hide
Sipping margaritas and coladas
Let's have fun so come along for the ride
Let's enjoy the cool waters of our pool
Stop being negative, don't be a fool
Later in the shade enjoy the evening
Remember what's summer's number one rule
Remember your whines when winter winds blow
And you're out shoveling a foot of snow
This stretch of heat'll be over soon enough
Make yourself useful, open the Bordeaux
We can't be wishing all our days away
How quick will come the Christmas holiday
Years fly by without any extra help
We sure can't wish our life away
