 back of my grandmother's house there was a hill              With a tangled garden

2.We carried our ice creams in the Summer sun
  Tried to make them last as long as we could
  Pretty soon they started to run
  Dripping down our arms dripping on the ground
  Melting

3.We sat under the trees smoking bark
  Lighting little fires and stomping each one out
  As the Summer went on the flames grew higher
  We just stared and stared and stared at everything melting

4.At the back of your grandmothers house there was a hill
  Black and smoking at the end of the day
  We watched the fire trucks go back on down the road
  We heard them calling out our names
  We were standing in the shadows melting

5.Now my grandmother's house is a supermarket
  And I'm far away living in a colder city
  And tonight I've pulled the top off a bottle of beer
  And I've lit a fire and I'm staring, staring
  Where are you, where are you now?
  You're melting
  We're all melting
