4th of July Songtext
von Cold War Kids

Seasons never change
The sun, it always shines
Swimming in Palm Springs
Losing track of time

It′s easy just to float
To enjoy the ride
Don't be critical
Only bring good vibes

Have a little fun
Join in with the tribe
There ain′t nothing wrong
With turning off my mind

But if my old friends
They could see me now
Would they recognize?


On the 4th of July
Take a look around you, how did we get so high?
On the 4th of July
How can we be humble living in paradise?
Oh

Summer lasts forever
But I know that the best times never last
Says she wants the shoes in every color
Whatever makes you feel good can't be bad

How much is enough?
It's all gonna burn
Doing what we love
With every cent we earn

These luxuries do lie
They say do not be ashamed
Where′d you lose your pride?

On the 4th of July
Take a look around you, how did we get so high?
On the 4th of July
How can we be humble living in paradise?
Oh


Feels like I′ve got so far away
From living hand to mouth and day to day
Oh, what I know now
Is that I wouldn't be here with you
If somebody up there weren′t looking out for me

I think that I'm special
You say that it′s selfish
I'll never forget what you gave up for me
Why you think I′m special
If I'm only selfish?
I'll never forget what you gave up for me
Thought that I was special
You say that I′m selfish
I′ll never forget what you gave up for me
Why should I be special
If I'm only selfish?
I′ll never forget what you gave up for me
What makes me so special?
You think that I'm selfish
I′ll never forget what you gave up for me
