I guess I'm moving towards participating the Summer Song competition(First time).

The song is based on true story, while I was in Armenia, I told my roomate(in my sleep), "don't buy cheap shorts" . It was hot, and noone was wearing shorts, and it was hard to find them.

papigiaj - is a slang, meaning "cheap" ( that was my original phrase :))

The beat and arrangement, will be something between Kygo style and beachboys,
and I will record piano , synth sounds.

Cheap Shorts

In the middle of June, mountain sun is making me tan
But my legs are feeling secure, cause I don’t have any shorts
I find Only jeans in the store, I guess the supply is short
Not even a single man is wearing shorts in this land


I feel the scorching heat
(From hips to my feet)*  - backing vocals
I feel the Summer beach
But I still say

Don’t buy, shorts papigiaj  (maybe Ill make it two lines, cause the song sounds too long)
Don’t buy, shorts papigiaj
Don’t buy shorts papigiai

Not even a single man is wearing shorts in this land
So Blazing hot in the bus, but men hang on to their jeans
Women are calling the shots and they don’t care as I see
Wearing shorts is not macho enough to feel as a man

I feel the scorching heat
(From hips to my feet)
I feel the Summer beach
But I still say

Don’t buy, shorts papigiaj
Don’t buy, shorts papigiaj
Don’t buy shorts papigiai

Bridge:
I tell my roommate in my sleep not to buy shorts cheap
He doesn’t reply he got scared
In the morning he tells me that I talk in my sleep
And he wont buy shorts papigiai
I was leaving soon, summer weather was my excuse
To search for budget camo shorts

Like a hypocrite
 I found cheap shorts
Like a hypocrite
 I bought cheap shorts 
Like a hypocrite(x2)
I still say

Don’t buy, shorts papigiaj
Don’t buy, shorts papigiaj
