Sunshine State of Mind
Oh hello summertime
 How I’ve missed you so
 Now that school’s out
 I’ve got places to go
 I’ve missed eating watermelon
 And tanning in my backyard
 I can finally relax
 And stop trying so hard
 I’ve only played golf once so far
 And the tan lines are already here
 But the truth of it is
 I’ve missed them all year
 I’ll probably fall asleep in the grass
 While enjoying the sun
 And wake up a little bit sunburnt
 But isn’t that half the fun?
 I want to walk on the sand
 And enjoy the sweet summer bliss
 Watch the fireworks in California
 There isn’t a thing I will miss
 I’ll collect shells at Del Mar
 Have a water balloon fight
 Shop in San Francisco with my mom
 Look for shooting stars all night
 I want to swing at a park
 And be kissed in the rain
 If there’s one thing I can promise
 It’s that this summer won’t be the same
 Maybe it won’t be perfect
 But I’ll certainly try
 Because you can’t bring me down
 From my sunshine state of mind
