[Verse 1]
I woke up with the sun today
Rolled out of bed and said
I’m gonna have some fun today
And that’s just what I did
The birds were singing come outside
I fell giddy like a kid
If life is like a swimming pool
You know I’m jumping in

[Pre-Chorus]
We got the perfect summer day
So put me in your plans
You know that, this doesn’t happen everyday
So everybody clap your hands!

[Chorus]
Cause when we raise 'em high, every hand in the sky
We’re the super fans, feeling great in the grand stands
Shout it out, make some noise, make it loud!
Soaking up the lovely weather
Everything just come together

[Verse 2]
I woke up feeling good today
My journey has begun
I gotta give a shout-out to
The green grass and the sun
It's long way off, a tricky shot
But I know it can be done
Another day, another game
Another hole in one (yeah)

[Pre-Chorus]
We got the perfect summer day
So put me in your plans
You know that, this doesn’t happen everyday
So everybody clap your hands!

[Chorus]
Cause when we raise 'em high, every hand in the sky
We’re the super fans, feeling great in the grand stands
Shout it out, make some noise, make it loud!
Soaking up the lovely weather
Everything just come together
Lift' em up, all our hand, all at once
We’re the super fans, feeling great in the grand stands
Keep 'em there, all our hands, in the air
We"re wishing it could last forever
Baby put your hands together

[Bridge]
The weather 's just so fine
Wish I could bottle time
'Cause if you only pause
You'll here the crowd applause
They're cheering for you now
Stand up and take a bow
You know that you deserve it
Today it's picture perfect

[Chorus]
Raise 'em high, every hand in the sky
We’re the super fans, feeling great in the grand stands
Shout it out, make some noise, make it loud!
Soaking up the lovely weather
Everything just come together!
Clap our hands, clap our hands, clap our hands
We’re the super fans, feeling great in the grand stands
Clap our hands, clap our hands, clap our hands
We're wishing it could last forever
Baby put your hands together

[Outro]
That’s why we clap our hands
That’s why we clap our hands

Originally making songs in his basement for his friends as Sky Sailing, Adam Young then discovered synth music and became Owl City, releasing two relatively unpopular albums Maybe I’m Dreaming and Of June before making his hit single “Fireflies” which made his third album as Owl City, Ocean Eyes a hit.

After this worldwide success he put on two more albums, All Things Bright and Beautiful in 2011, and The Midsummer Station in 2012. In 2014 he released an EP, Ultraviolet, composed of 4 songs whom one would appear on his following album, Mobile Orchestra. Retiring from Owl City in 2016 to focus on Adam Young Scores, a new project made of orchestral soundtracks about historic events, he reappeared in 2017 to tease his upcoming new album Cinematic, with the release of a series of three EPs, called Reel 1 , 2 and 3.
