Parents React to Summer Playlist Songs
The time is upon us
“School’s Out”
Alice Cooper: Out for summer, out ’til fall / We might not come back at all
Parent: Oh, believe me, buddy, you’re going back.
“Summer of ‘69”
Bryan Adams: Those were the best days of my life / Oh, yeah / Back in the summer of ‘69
Parent: Ugh, I beg of you, pick any other year. I have a middle schooler now and the jokes never stop.
“Malibu”
Miley Cyrus: Is it supposed to be this hot all summer long?
Parent: Unfortunately, yes. That’s why we keep telling you to stop leaving the front door open.
“In the Summertime”
Mungo Jerry: Have a drink, have a drive / Go out and see what you can find
Parent: Yeah, I don’t think I’m comfortable with my kid hanging around you.
“Ocean Avenue”
Yellowcard: We were both 16 and it felt so right / Sleepin’ all day, stayin’ up all night
Parent: Do you have any idea how many times your father and I worried that you were never going to wake up?
