[Cm] _ _ _ [D] And if it ain't broke then don't try to fix [G] it
And think of the summers of the past
Adjust the bass and let the alpine blast
Pop [Cm] in my CD and let me run a [D] rhyme
And put your car on cruise
And lay back [Cm] cause it's the summertime

[G] blues
School is out and it's sort of a buzz
But back then I didn't really know what it [Cm] was
But [G] now I see what happened is
The way that people respond to summer madness
The weather is hot and girls are dressing [D] less
And checking out the fellow students
And telling them who's best
Riding around in your Jeep or your Benzos
Or in your Nissan sitting on Lorenzos
Back in Philly we be out in the park
A place called the Plateau
It's where everybody [Cm] go
Guys out hunting and girls doing [D] likewise
Honking at the honey in front of you with the [Cm] light eyes
She turn around to see what you [Dm] beeping at
It's like the summer's a natural aphrodisiac
And [Cm] with a fan and pad I can pose this [D] rhyme
To hit you with a picture equipped [Cm] for the summertime
Summer, summer, summer, summer, [Dm] _ _ _ _

_ _ summer
Summer, [Dm] summer, summer, summer, summer
I hustle to the mall to get me a short [Cm] set
Yeah I got on sneaks but I need a [D] new pair
Cause basketball's forced in the summer
Got [Cm] girls there
September just about 88
[D] Hop in the water [G] plug just for old time's sake
Break to your crib change your clothes once [D] more
Cause you're invited to a barbecue to start the [G] war
Sitting with your friends as y'all reminisce
About the days growing up and the first person you kissed
And as I think back makes me wonder
[D] How the smell from a grill can spark off [Cm] nostalgia
[G] All the kids playing out front
Little [D] boys messing around with the girls playing [Cm] double dutch
While the DJ's spinning a [D] tune
As the old folks dance at your family [Cm] reunion
Then six o'clock rolls [D] around
You just finished wiping your [Cm] car down
It's time to cruise
So you [D] go to the summertime hangout
It looks like a [Cm] car show
Everybody come looking [D] real fine
Fresh from the barber shop or flyin' to the [Cm] beauty salon
Every moment frontin' and [Dm] massin'
Chillin' in the car they spend all day [Cm] waxin'
Leanin' to the side
But you can't speak to me
Cause the [D] street rule two miles an hour
So everybody [Cm] sees you
There's an air of love and of [D] happiness
And this is the fresh prince's new [Cm] definition
Of summer madness
