[Verse 1]
Love is such an incredible thing
It protects small kids when they're out in the open
And the words you sing from the back of your throat
When you smoke, explode in a new kind of death

It's hot in the sun, much hotter than it is in the shade
There's fortified wine and pink lemonade
Burn your books, 'cause school is out for the summer
Burn your books, blow your mind with love for one another
It's hot - much cooler if you're sitting in the shade
With a brand new book and a smooth cross-fade
Dub-plates making mini-revolutions in my mind
Two decks, one mic, and a little bit of hate for humankind

[Chorus]
I was the polar bear and you were the Eskimo
I was the iceberg and you were the ice floe
I was the shipwreck and you were the Arctic
I was Antarctic and you were the ice police

[Verse 2]
Jesus is living up in Heaven
Sending Christmas cards to girls with large vocabularies
And the words you know make your vocabulary grow
To a big, big size so I guess it's no surprise that
It's hot in the sun, much hotter than it is in the shade
There's fortified wine and pink lemonade
Burn your books, 'cause school is out for the summer
Burn your books, blow your mind with love for one another
It's hot - much cooler if you're sitting in the shade
With a brand new book and a smooth cross-fade
Dub-plates making mini-revolutions in my mind
Two decks, one mic, and a little bit of hate for humankind

[Bridge]
From the uppermost, Topmost, Northernmost, Leftfield
East, West, January, point of the center of the sun
The stars burst out and down in a glorious n-n-natural
And interstellar blast from the past
And the previous, backwards, behind you
Up at the top of the bottom of the middle of the maze
Orangutans swing from the canopy
After the previous epilogue preceding the parade

[Chorus]
I was the polar bear and you were the Eskimo
I was the iceberg and you were the ice floe
I was the shipwreck and you were the arctic
I was Antarctic and you were the ice police
I was the polar bear and you were the Eskimo
I was the iceberg and you were the ice floe
I was the shipwreck and you were the arctic
I was Antarctic and you were the ice police
