press play, then scroll down and sing the new lyrics
♫Feels something like summertime
Classe are over in a matter of time
Spotify’s on and you’re by my side
Feels something like summertime♪
♫These days life goes like this
Wake up, go to class and then
Gotta be a little something more than this
at the bottom of my Verde’s cup♪
♫I keep a postcard from home in my pocket
it has sunshine and a picture of a rocket
O look its a shiny new dime
That’ll help me with paying up
Thinking like I had enough♪
♫Today makes me
feel something like summertime
Classes are over in a matter of time
Pandora’s on and you’re by my side
Feels something like summertime♪
♫Like that first exam and that first all nighter
There ain’t nothing better then a cold cider
It’s like a beach blanket and warm sunshine
It feels something like summertime
Something something summertime♪
♫There was a warm breeze with a cool tan
The tunnels mapped out on the back of my hand
While you were laughing I was making plans
To take our PSets, just us two
and go do them on our roof♪
♫Today makes me
feel something like summertime
Finals soon but still making those rhymes
OCW’s on and hanging outside
Feels something like summertime♪
♫Like that first walk onto that green grass
Realizing there’s nothing better then that
It’s like Killian Court got nuked with sunshine
It feels something like summertime
Something something summertime♪
[Solo]
Take it away reader!
Sing your freestyle verses!
I’m serious. Sing!
♫Feels something like summertime
Finals soon but in the meantime
Enjoying ciders right out of my stein♪
♫Like that first snowfall, this was the first sunshine
That flooded campus with a beauty divine
It’s like a beach blanket that sure looks fine (yeah)♪
♫Feels something like summertime
Enjoying it and I feel so inclined
To go outside and feel the sunshine,
Feels something like summertime
Just like summer time
Something something summertime
Something like summertime.♪
