"my summer in encino" lyrics

Just hold down the fort for me
I'll be gone for two weeks or a month
Spent my summer climbing a tree
There's so much to be seen from the top, unless you fall
And I know you're scared of heights
And it's okay, you know you can fly
But the thought of falling makes you want to cry

So when you come home, let's
Let's go back to Six Flags
You're more normal now than you've ever been
But that doesn't mean much to you
Do you wish they were still together?
Or were you just too young to understand?
And though everyone said it was the worst time that you ever had
You'll never be happy like that again

Not a single thing you do would make you normal
And it makes you want to die

Just hold down the fort for me
It's been three years and now you're home
Spent my summer climbing a tree
I think I was better off alone
And I remember being the smartest kid you knew
But when I was presented with a problem, I withdrew

So when you come home, let's
Let's go back to Six Flags
You're more normal now than you've ever been
But that doesn't mean much to you
So when you come home, let's
Let's go back to Six Flags
Not a single thing you do would make you normal
And it makes you want to die

Do you wish they were still together?
Or were you just too young to understand?
And though everyone said these are your happiest years
It seems like you lost track of time
