Sunshine (That Acid Summer) Lyrics


You roll and tumble
With your big heart falling
You roll and tumble alone
You reach forever
With your dirty hands holding
You reach for something you will never know
I heard you singing
In a taco bell bathroom
I heard you singing a cheap trick song
We sang surrender
All the way to county line
When I listen to that song now
It makes me think of summertime

That acid summer
We were wasted and happy
We were laughing in the sunshine
You twist and turn
With your bright eyes shining
You twist and turn in the California sun
You wait forever
For the life that you dream of
You wait for something that will never come
You twist and turn in a slow motion day dream
You twist and turn in your own sweet hell
I don't get so close to the fire anymore
But when I think about you now
It makes me think of summertime
That acid summer
We were wasted and happy
We were laughing in the sunshine
Laughing in the sunshine
In the sunshine
You twist and turn
With your bright eyes shining
You twist and turn in the California sun
You wait forever
For the life that you dream of
You wait for something that will never come
Never ever come
You twist and turn in a slow motion free fall
You twist and turn in your own good time
I can't watch you twisting and turning and turning anymore
You know I never thought a good time
Would turn into a lifestyle
I just can't watch it anymore
But when I think about that summertime
It always seems to make me smile
Yeah that acid summer
We were wasted and happy
We were laughing in the sunshine
Go
We were laughing in the sunshine
Go

Everclear is a rock band formed in Portland, Oregon, USA, in 1992. For most of its existence, Everclear consisted of Art Alexakis (b. 12 April 1962, Los Angeles, California, USA; vocals, guitar), Craig Montoya (b. 14 September 1970; bass, vocals) and Greg Eklund (b. 18 April 1970; drums). Eklund replaced original drummer Scott Cuthbert in 1994. Montoya and Eklund departed the band in 2003, but Alexakis has continued performing as Everclear with a new lineup.

After a solo tour in the fall of 2003, Alexakis decided to continue with Everclear, organizing a new band that made its debut in March of 2004. The new lineup consisted of bass player Sam Hudson, guitarist Dave French, and drummer Eric Bretl. In the summer of 2004, the band added keyboard player Josh Crawley, and swapped Bretl for former Everclear drum tech Brett Snyder. The new lineup released its first recording, a cover of Woody Guthrie's This Land Is Your Land, that summer. A self-released EP of performances recorded for XM Satellite Radio called Closure was given out at shows in the fall of 2004.

Free of a major label, Alexakis spent the ensuing year and half slowly recording material for a new Everclear release. He admitted that the time after the breakup of the original lineup served as a "wake up call", during which he suffered his third divorce and a filing for bankruptcy. Alexakis announced the completion of the album in early 2006,titled Welcome To The Drama Club. The new band is now on Eleven Seven Music.

In August of 2008, drummer Brett Snyder left the band after four years. He was then replaced by Tommy Stewart, who previously played in bands Fuel and Godsmack.
