The Year We Stayed Home

I’m probably not alone
It felt like Twilight Zone
Thank god I had my phone
The year we stayed home

And we might reminisce
But we will never miss
The year we stayed home
And learned to be alone

It’s summer 21
We wanna have fun
It’s summer 21
We need to have fun

Cuz I want what you want
I want it loud
I miss what you miss
I miss the big crowd

Let’s put it all behind
We can relearn to be kind
To those we owe the most
We’ll give our thanks and toast

And now we’ll have a beer
For the Dumpster Fire year
We’ll make up lost time
With a big bottle of wine

It’s summer 21
We wanna have fun
It’s summer 21
We need to have fun

Cuz I want what you want
I want it loud
I miss what you miss
I miss the big crowd

And we now owe it all
To those who gave their all
How many more made poorer?
Thank science for the cure

We’ll have a few beer
For the Dumpster Fire year
We’ll make up lost time
With a big bottle of wine

It’s summer 21
We wanna have fun
It’s summer 21
We need to have fun

Cuz I want what you want
I want it loud
I miss what you miss
I miss the big crowd
