50 Song Lyrics To Use For Your Summer Instagram Captions
They aren’t overplayed just yet.
Summer is one of the best times of year to post prime Instagram photos. You have golden hour in the evening that offers the absolute best lighting for selfies and group pics. And then there’s the bright afternoon sunshine ideal for some fun poolside snaps.
This season is also chock-full of travel, so you’re bound to have plenty of opportunities to take cute beach shots, group photos at rooftop get-togethers, and selfies in the park with your dog. The season is bright, cheerful, sunny, warm – and makes for some great photos. Once you've got the picture, though, you’ll need to find the perfect summertime song lyrics to use as an Instagram caption.
There are countless songs about summer, sun, and good times, and they all perfectly capture the vibes the season has to offer. Of course, a song doesn't even necessarily have to be just about summer to deliver the right lyrics, but as long as there’s mention of beaches, breezes, or booze, you should be good to go.
Using song lyrics as Instagram captions is an ideal way to capture the fun of a vacation or the adventure of a whirlwind night out — plus, it'll be interesting to see which of your friends might recognize the tune, especially if it’s a major throwback.
Here are 50 summer song lyrics that make great Instagram captions to make updating your socials easier.
