about

A very happy song about family and fun in the summertime.

lyrics

It seems that in most modern families
Everyone is just too busy
Some work too much, some move away
And even with all sorts of ways
To stay in touch it’s hard to find the time

The word family itself has come to mean
Just the nuclear part of what used to be
Whole communities of cousins
Love multiplied by dozens
Now we’re lucky to know one or two


Chorus:
Come July we’ll buck the trends
Gather together where the fun never ends
No pretenses needed with our family
At the Cousins Party


From all generations and places
Everyone embraces
Those people that we’ve missed so bad
Cousins we didn’t know we had
And new people in their lives


So much to do and even more to eat
Chances to bond and compete
Wiffle ball and horseshoes rule
Children’s laughter fills the pool
And memories flow like the wine


Bridge:
It may seem old-fashioned
To gather this way
Or maybe too Italian
Some may say
But bringing everyone back home
Reminds us that we are never alone


No one cares how you’re related
Just glad that you could make it
Without this party we could be
Just like other families
Weddings and funerals only

Blink and the day has flown by
So sad to have to say goodbye
But we can take comfort in
Knowing next year our kin
Will be right back here once again


Chorus (2x)
