[Intro] |
|
Oh hey, how was bird watching? |
|
I made this for you in arts and crafts |
|
It's a clay zombie figure |
|
I know you like zombies right? Okay |
|
[MC Lars] |
|
I met a girl by the boathouse, she's so lovely |
|
All I want from her is to kiss and hug me |
|
Honestly I'm homesick but she makes it all better |
|
Wow that's beautiful - what's more beautiful? |
|
The way she looks at me when she busses her tray |
|
Pen-15 on my hand, Sharpie won't wash away |
|
Thought I was played out on this whole love thing |
|
But she's the type of girl I'd ask to wear my onion ring |
|
I'm 10 years old, I thought girls were gross |
|
But this one's cool, she likes my jokes |
|
I'll keep her safe during capture the flag |
|
Spy on my team for her, enraptured that bad |
|
We go for a walk, I reach for her hand |
|
I'm like "I think I like you" she's like "That was the plan" |
|
I made her a sculpture in arts and crafts |
|
I farted on the hike, she was the only girl who laughed |
|
Summer camp love is so intense |
|
I'd french kiss her if I knew what that meant! |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Down by the lake there's a girl that I know |
|
We met at camp almost six weeks ago |
|
No one can tell what next year might hold |
|
at summer camp |
|
[Interlude] |
|
Then next may comes |
|
She calls me |
|
She tells me she won't be at camp this year |
|
I don't know what to say |
|
I'm sad |
|
Fast forward eight years |
|
What a surprise |
|
It was well worth the wait |
|
[MC Lars] |
|
Yo, I'm 19 now with a fun summer job |
|
Camp counselor for kids and it doesn't seem odd |
|
Working at the same place I used to go to |
|
You want camp traditions? Well let me show you |
|
And guess who's back on staff this year? |
|
Little Miss Heartbreaker - oh dear! |
|
All grown up and I'm thinking maybe |
|
time can do beautiful things to a lady |
|
Skinny-dipping in the lake, she starts to blush |
|
I reach for her hand and I feel the rush |
|
I hold her close, and pretty soon |
|
we're falling in love under a Tahoe moon |
|
I'm like "I think I missed you" she's like "I missed you too" |
|
This is what time and patience can do |
|
Summer camp love is so intense |
|
I'd be her man if I knew what that meant! |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Interlude] |
|
September comes, we go back to college |
|
I holla at her on Facebook |
|
She's all up on my wall and shizz |
|
She calls me the next May |
|
She asks if I'm working again |
|
Fast forward 20 years |
|
[MC Lars] |
|
Now we're both adults, it happened so fast |
|
And somehow our marriage has happened to last |
|
Had a ceremony by the boathouse |
|
where the 10 year old me, first checked her out |
|
And everyone was there, our family and friends |
|
I think I like the way this story ends |
|
We had a little girl who just turned 10 |
|
Oh no - here we go again! |
|
[Madeline] Mom, dad, umm |
|
[MC Lars] What's up Maddie? |
|
[Madeline] I met a boy by the boathouse |
|
Summer camp love is so intense... it's so in tents |
|
Summer camp love is so intense (Cupid must have taken archery lessons) |
|
Summer camp love is so intense... it's so in tents |
|
Summer camp love is so intense (this sailboat fits 2 people perfectly) |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Outro] |
|
Don't be scared of the ghost stories, I'm here |
|
The moral of the story is that some songs can be happy |
|
Just like life |
|
And even though life can be sad |
|
Sometimes you just have to smile |
|
and remember that summer camp love |
