I hate summer, I hate her crooked teeth. I hate her 1960s haircut. I hate her knobby knees. I hate her cockroach-shaped splotch on her neck. I hate the way she smacks her lips before she talks. And I hate the way she sounds when she laughs

Like other songs Hazlewood wrote, “Sugar Town” was deliberately enigmatic: directed to a young audience, yet outwardly tame enough to receive radio play (though he denied that he had ever used LSD, or regularly partaken in drugs in general). He explained, “You had to make the lyric dingy enough where the kids knew what you were talking about — and they did. Double entendre. But not much more if you wanted to get it played on the radio. We used to have lotsa of trouble with lyrics, but I think it’s fun to keep it hidden a little bit.”[3] "It was hard to put any other songs with 'Sugar Town'," Nancy remembers. "It was basically about LSD, but was not publicized as that. It was Lee's 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.' It went against my image...." The B-side to "Sugar Town" was "Summer Wine", a popular duet featuring, and also written by, Hazlewood. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugar_Town

Cute, fun song. Loved it the first time I heard it and now several years later, I still never tire of it. Great idea to have Zooey Deschanel sing it in (500) Days of Summer.
