You and your friends and me and my crew
down by the lake a July afternoon
we were there for the show and to meet some girls
you were there to talk to boys and twirl your curls
I saw you smile when you looked at me
you saw me blush when you knew I could see
I was in heaven standing by your side
you smelled so pretty I almost died
you looked like a dream in your blue and gold
I was all cool cause I was 12 years old
you slipped me your number said call me soon
And Boom went the firecrackers, boom boom boom
Back at school they couldn't keep us apart
we fell in love and you stole my heart
I held your hand outside of homeroom
And Boom went the firecrackers boom boom boom
In three months time at the jr high dance
it was time for a kiss and you gave me a chance
We touched lips and I nearly swooned
Cause Boom went the firecrackers boom boom boom
You took my hand said don't go away
I said I'm forever. I'm here to stay
You wrote my name on your books at school
And Boom went the firecrackers boom boom boom
Five years later at the picture show
you said I'm ready and I said let's go
Down by the lake by the light of the moon
Boom went the firecrackers boom boom boom
I'm looking forward to my life with you
Cause Boom go the firecrackers boom boom boom
Now we're alone in our own bedroom
And Boom go the firecrackers boom boom boom
First thing in the morning and again at noon
Boom go the firecrackers boom boom boom
