'Hotter Than A Match Head' Painting

Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity? Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around, people lookin' half dead Walkin' on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head But at night, it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on, and dance all night Despite the heat, it'll be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity The days can't be like the nights In the summer in the city In the summer in the city Cool town, evening in the city Dressed so fine and lookin' so pretty Cool cat lookin' for a kitty Gonna look in every corner of the city 'Til I'm wheezing like a bus stop Runnin' upstairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop But at night, it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on, and dance all night Despite the heat, it'll be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity The days can't be like the nights In the summer in the city In the summer in the city Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity? Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around, people lookin' half dead Walkin' on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head But at night, it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on, and dance all night Despite the heat, it'll be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity The days can't be like the nights In the summer in the city In the summer in the city ‘Summer in the City’ by The Lovin’ Spoonful Songwriters: John Sebastian / Mark Sebastian / Steve Boone "Summer in the City" is a song recorded by The Lovin' Spoonful and written by John Sebastian, Mark Sebastian, and Steve Boone. It appeared on their album Hums of the Lovin' Spoonful and reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, in August 1966, for three consecutive weeks. The song features car horns and jackhammer noises, during the instrumental bridge, to represent the sounds of a noisy city street. The song became a gold record. It is ranked #401 on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song originated from one started by John Sebastian's younger brother, Mark, while living as a teenager in his parents' apartment on Washington Square West in New York City. When the Lovin' Spoonful needed new songs for their third studio album in 1966, John Sebastian took the basic song and added verses, together with a middle eight created by bassist Steve Boone. The studio recording at Columbia Studios, produced by Erik Jacobsen with engineer Roy Halee, added electric piano played by studio musician Artie Schroeck, together with sound effects of traffic and industrial noises. Hums of the Lovin' Spoonful is the third studio album and fourth overall by American folk rock band the Lovin' Spoonful, released in 1966 by Kama Sutra Records. It peaked at No. 14 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart. The Lovin' Spoonful is an American rock band that was popular during the mid- to late-1960s.
