CU, CU, CU at C2

Tomorrow, next weekend, sometime soon

Summer’s here, summer’s at C2

Come for the rock, stay for the indie

Dive in the garage, lose it in the jungle

BU, BU, BU at C2

Skanking, moshing, grinding, headbanging

Summer’s here, summer’s at C2

Come for the reggae, stay for the punk

Be the pulse-hungry, feel the sweat-glaze

♡U, ♡U, ♡U at C2

Blue, pink, yellow, green

Summer’s here, summer’s at C2

Follow the streamers, stay with the fashion

Move with the colour, paint with the light

CU, CU, CU at C2

Arches, fans, triangles, feathers

Summer’s here, summer’s at C2

Peer in close, see the mini-peeps

Under the arches, dancing by fairy light
