Lemonade Lyrics - Grey Oceans - Cocorosie

It was Cinco de Mayo 

Pillow case on his head 

No more breathing time 

An ambulance sped 

Sped 'round every corner 

Calling out his name 

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window 

Sat and watched the summer corn grow 

Ate ice cream in a desert dream 

And got lost in father's singing 

Too hot inside 

Too hot outside 

Lazy days when I said let's go for a ride 

We'd sail on Spirit Lake 

Me, my pappy and his lemonade 

Tim and Tina were my parents' names 

They got engaged 

They were inflamed 

Seduced by the light of butterflies 

How they shimmer, how they glimmer 

Those butterflies 

We seven kids 

We almost died 

Nearly put to death 

By lightening strikes 

Instead there was hot, pink 

Flashes in the sky 

We climbed the rocks, in snow and rain 

In search of magic powers 

To heal our mother's pain
