about

This song was created during a Monty Harper songwriting residency at Skyline Elementary School in Stillwater, Oklahoma, May 2015.

lyrics

Fly balls flying at a baseball game
Hotdogs, friends, and a triple play
Dreaming on the bus of the hall of fame
We always will remember this day

Christmas decorations with a festive look
Singing bout some reindeer and a sleigh
Dancing round the tree and exchanging books
We always will remember this day

In the future, when we're older
We will remember the past
And the past is happening now
So remember to have a blast

Making coil pots at Multiarts
Squishing with our fingers in the clay
Different color glazes on different parts
We always will remember this day

At a station with your partner with a popsicle face
Fishing with your feet in a plastic bay
Splashing with sponges in a crazy race
We always will remember this day

In the future, when we're older
We will remember the past
And the past is happening now
So remember to have a blast

Ain't nobody got time for whining
Ain't nobody got time to fight
Ain't nobody got time for lying
When we're busy making memories bright

In the future, when we're older
We will remember the past
And the past is happening now
So remember to have a blast

So let's all have a blast
