The Fourth Of July


So this is the fourth of July
The noisiest day of the year
Explosions and sparkles and apple pie
And hot dogs, hamburgers and beer

People heading for camp sites
Cars piled high with tents and boats
Lotion for sun burn and skeeter bites
Tubes and stuff, as long as it floats

Sun high in the sky beating down
Waves lashing the shore
People lying on white, hot sand turning brown
This is the way of July four

July four is ruled by the moon
A day when people laugh and are gay
A three day vacation, over too soon
And July four is my BIRTHDAY!
