    Breakfast in cemetery
    Boy tasting wild cherry
    Touch girl, apple blossom
    Just a boy playing possum
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    And go our separate ways
    What is that cheerful sound?
    Rain falling on the ground
    We'll wear a jolly crown
    Buckle up, we're wayward bound
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    And go our separate ways
    I touch your hem you say
    Let's stroll down Martin Way
    Pick plums, abandoned farm
    Who let norms come to harm?
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    And go our separate ways
    Cover me with rain
    Walk me down the lane
    I'll drink from your drain
    We will never change
    No matter what they say
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    And go our separate ways
    Motorbike to cemetery
    Picnic on wild berries
    French toast with molasses
    Croquet and baked alaskas
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    We'll come back for Indian summer
    Cover me with rain
    also i picked this up on genius and i love it:
    This little piece of summertime fun pretty much encapsulates Beat Happening’s essential persona: a bit deceiving, almost childlike but sexual, pop and cheery but a little somber.
    Dean Wareham - of Luna and Galaxie 500 fame - said:
    This song is indie’s “Knocking on Heaven’s Door”- everybody’s done it.

    Why is this good? Could not anyone do a song this good? I think people are attracted to the plainness, the simplicity or the fact that it isn't skilled musicians playing. It's a goofy song that connects because it is accessible, and it's accessible because it comes from a place of no talent. That's not saying that there is no talent with this band, just that the song is without it.

    I first heard this song in 1993 as a cover by Luna. Luna's version is way more polished, multi layered and slowed down with an amazing guitar solo (even if it deletes a verse). This is an example of a cover improving on the original. Check it out: m.ruclips.net/video/J8jxpBkp9OQ/видео.html

      No, the song has no negative comments to the country of India and it's people? And if they meant Indian as in native Americans: yes using Indian as a label for native americans is weird because they are not from India and it does come from racist colonizers who thought the natives looked Indian so that's what they called them, and people using it nowadays is still weird but it is for the most part not their fault. A lot of people don't know the reason why some people call the natives Indian and that's not their fault, plus it's not bad to be Indian so it's not really negative and racist it's just weird and wrong lol
