I live in a city

That only knows heat

No Winter, no spring

No autumn, just summer,

And HEAT

And when the rain stops

And grasses form weeds

And children grow up

And we hit the streets

We work without water

Our bodies grow tired

I look at the sun and wish it would retire

‘Cause whenever it’s here

And the clouds are not near

We reach 40 degrees

And the city’s on fire
