[Verse 1]
Drowning here in Summer's Cauldron
Under mats of flower lava
Please don't pull me out
This is how I would want to go

Breathing in the boiling butter
Fruit of sweating golden inca
Please don't heed my shout
I'm relaxing the undertow

[Chorus]
When Miss Moon lays down
And Sir Sun stands up
Me, I'm found floating round and round
Like a bug in brandy
In this big bronze cup
Drowning here in Summer's Cauldron
Eh!

[Verse 2]
Trees are dancing drunk with nectar
Grass is waving underwater
Please don't pull me out
This is how I would want to go

Insect bomber Buddhist droning
Copper chord of August's organ
Please don't heed my shout
I'm relaxing the undertow

[Chorus]
When Miss Moon lays down (in her hilltop bed)
And Sir Sun stands up (raise his regal head)
Me I'm found floating round and round
Like a bug in brandy
In this big bronze cup
Drowning here in Summer's Cauldron
