As the dust floats in the evening light
And the neighbors laugh and dine outside
I hear sirens in the
Distance and I hope it ain't
Nothing serious
But if it is then thank god, it ain't me
Maybe I could eat with them
Bring along some ice-cold beverages
I could smalltalk my way through to
Someone cute and willing to do
Nothing serious
But if I can't then goddam my plan
I can smell their smokey grill
As their voices fill with summer thrill
Till the siren wails drown them all out
Must be close by and I again, hope it ain't
Nothing serious
But if it is then thank god it ain't me
I decide to check it out
A good excuse to meet someone new
And as I'm about to leave the room
I hear the sound of burning wood
Coming from
The adjacent room
Which means that I'm trapped in the bathroom
So I take a shower and wait to be
Rescued by someone possibly
Cute and willing to do
Nothing serious
Nothing serious
Nothing serious
Nothing serious
Nothing serious
Nothing serious
Nothing serious
But if no one comes then goddam my plan"
