about

(On a sweltering evening of four & twenty, I began to write this song)

lyrics

[ice cream truck jingle]

refrain
Summer / time in Julyyy
Rise / reach that temperature high
Lazy days / underneath trees
Skip a rock / kick back / enjoy the breeze

Go for a swim in that pool
It doesn't matter 'cause we're in between school
Shine / get a nice clean tan
Buy fizz candy from the ice cream / man

verse the first
01 School's out! [Yay! ] / July summertime / enter!
02 Pass the Grapevine to an Anaheim adventure!
03 Now into that land / it's Disney!
04 Main Street fanfare / sweeter than a crispy
05 Churro, thorough search for those anthropomorphic
06 Creatures / Just to get their autographs recorded
07 Isn't it fantasmic we can
08 Take flight with Pete Pan or Alice / wander in 'er land?
09 And .. / what matters more / is that in the Matterhorn
10 Can't get captured by that yeti when it roars
11 Star Tours / or / yellow submarine voyage
12 Even if it never really did / travel on a buoyan-cy that?!
13 A tophat ghost in me Doom Buggie!
14 And is the room stretching / or am I just bugging?!
15 Cannonblast! / To the Caribbean / Oh no!
16 Dirty men an' flirty wenches / [yo ho! ]
17 Swift up the Swiss Family Treehouse / look down / see crowds
18 Cruise through the Jungle / shoot a hippo in the muzzle
19 And once the day fades away
20 It's okay / it's lit-up by the 'lectrical Parade!

[parade's vocoder voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls..."]

refrain

verse the second
01 Summer lovin' / had me a blassst
02 Howww serendipitous, that our cross should paths
03 'cause, I missed one adventure, but I met you, instead
04 Funny how it happened, managed to get you, in bed
05 But it wasn't it like that; it was playful
06 All of them were in that room, and soon, we made full
07 Bats of the lashes, the cat on the mattress
08 Astrid's reactions, that was disastrous!
09 But, no matter, I made you a pb an' j
10 Hope that you like me, despite what your friends say
* * *
11 Then I went away / for a little minute
12 Thankfully you weren't offended / you stayed unattended
13 I was reading every message you texted
14 And when I responded / little me truly meant it
* * *
15 But I'm back / Hey, um / wanna hang out this Wednesday
16 My goal's to hold ya hand as we both stroll throughout Golden Gate
17 "Doctor"? / That's a kid's game — know what I mean? ..
18 Let's play geneticist and get under each other's jeans ..
19 Haha / But really? / you got me actin' silly
20 Telephone ya at nine o'clock / and we'll stare up at the ceiling

refrain

verse the third
01 Nowww... / we make the drive up norrrth
02 So we can escape to the great outdoors
03 *Yawn* / I wake with a pitched tent
04 [haha!] / But I mean the literal / the one that keeps the minerals /out !
05 [Mmm] / Smells good / What's for break-fast?
06 One of the sausages crossed from the Costco checklist?
07 Dreamy on a boulder in the middle of a river
08 The fresh air! / I love to rest here / with the timber
09 Hike over the mountains / bike over the trails
10 When we start to lose the light / snipe hunt 'til we prevail ! [Ha!]
11 By the citronella / sittin' with the fellas
12 Grippin' graham crackers / mashin' marshmallas
13 Now please tell us / 'bout Those We Don't Speak Of
14 No ghost stories! / King's cups! / Drink up !
15 Brew up that coffee / with Kahlúa and Brandy
16 Man is that a black bear where the shore gets sandy?!
17 Well no need to panic / remain in your seat though
18 It'll wander off and — *gasp* / Mosquito !
19 Hey let's puff the flowers / while singin' Silly Puddy
20 Stomach to the stars / chillin' with me buddies

outro
No more pencils / No more books
No more teachers dirty looks
