SUMMER SONGS
The Ataris - In This Diary
Here in this diary, I write you visions of my summer
It was the best I ever had...
There were choruses and sing-alongs, and that unspoken feeling
Of knowing that right now is all that matters.
All the nights we stayed up talking
Listening to 80's songs,
And quoting lines from all those movies that we love
It still brings a smile to my face.
I guess when it comes down to it...
Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up
These are the best days of our lives
The only thing that matters is just following your heart
And eventually, you'll finally get it right.
Breaking into hotel swimming pools,
And wreaking havoc on our world
Hanging out at truckstops just to pass the time
The blacktop's singing me to sleep.
Lighting fireworks in parking lots
Illuminate the blackest nights
Cherry Cokes under this moonlit summer sky
2015 Riverside, it's time to say goodbye.
Get on the bus, it's time to go!
well that song applys more to summer 2003,
but it's still a summer song.
and it still fucking rocks.
*tear* ='(
The Ataris - Summer 79
Our last day of summer, 1979
Gotta live it up one time before it's over
We will make history tonight.
Out at the drive-in
All of our closest friends, they will be sneaking in
You'll be spending the whole night
Trying eveything you can to get that girl to notice you.
"We Are the Champions" playing out on the radio station
Everyone sing along with these anthems of our generation.
Cruisin' down Pacific Coast Highway,
Put the top down, crawl into the back seat.
Let's create anthems of our own tonight.
Down at the roller rink,
All the cool kids crowded around the air hockey table.
"Hey, my best friend likes you,"
I hear you shout at me as you go skating by.
Sneak out of your window, darlin'
Let's live like outlaws, honey
We'll never look back.
Climb out on this rooftop,
And stare at the city lights below us
This world belongs to us tonight
The kids will keep ragin' on-
And they ain't never gonna stop.
<3
