The lyrics you can hear in the Dead Island 2 trailer are the following:

Summertime
The weather’s hotter
You’re running out of holy water
I hate all your songs about having fun
Next to all the strip malls and the bleached out sun
Summertime is a tired muse
And all you punks are too cool for school

I hate Los Angeles! (Hate L.A.!)
I hate Los Angeles! (Hate L.A.!)
I hate Los Angeles! (Hate L.A.!)
I hate Los Angeles! (Hate L.A.!)

The song puts you in the perfect mood before you start spreading death all over California in the video game.
