“Handstand” is a wildly different song to the others on Endless Summer Vacation. As the final track on the AM side of the album, it has a spoken intro, a catchy chorus, instrumental interlude, and a beautiful bridge.“When it comes to the sequencing of Endless Summer Vacation, I divided it by two parts, ‘AM’ and ‘PM,’ to kind of represent almost an act,” she explained in the clip. “The ‘AM’ to me is representing the morning time, where there’s a buzz and an energy and there’s a potential of new possibilities. It’s a new day.”
In stark contrast, ‘Handstand’ is the “PM” portion of the album will represent a “slinky, seediness and kind of a grime but a glamour at the same time. In the evening, it’s a great time for rest, it’s a time to recover. Or it’s a time to go out and experience the wild side,” she explained. “In LA, there’s a certain energy to the night and you can feel trouble boil up to the surface and it’s very inspiring to me,” Cyrus said.

[Intro]
We met each other on the neon dinghy
Past the manta rays and palm trees
Glowing creatures beamed down from great heights
Electric eels in red venom
In the sky, we could see the riders on the horseback
On comets, coming toward us, kicking up with laughter
My friend Big Twitchy rode the boat to the light
Surfed the north break
We danced until there was nothing left
Just me and Twitchy
'Cause that's all we knew

[Interlude]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
[Chorus]
You're questioning the science, 'cause you don't understand
How I'm doing what I'm doing in a fucking handstand
You found it so impressive that I do it again
My other one is busy, so I use my left hand
We took it kinda fast, but you're putting it slow
I see your mother's calling and you're hitting ignore
It's like you saw an unicorn, you don't understand
How I'm doing what I'm doing in a fucking handstand
[Bridge]
I wish I could crawl inside your heart
Take you captive and then sail away
I wish I could know that it's forever
Take me captive and then sail away
[Chorus]
You're questioning the science, 'cause you don't understand
How I'm doing what I'm doing in a fucking handstand
You found it so impressive that I do it again
My other one is busy, so I use my left hand
We took it kinda fast but you're putting it slow
I see your mother's calling and you're hitting ignore
It's like you saw an unicorn, you don't understand
How I'm doing what I'm doing in a fucking handstand
