Wake up in the mornin' Quarter to five Shirts laid out Socks in a line Same routine I lose my mind Again and again and again I, Well I walk to the car in the pourin' rain I found my way to the traffic lane I know another day and I'm goin' insane It keeps goin' again and again I, I wish I could fly, fly away Somewhere I can disappear, Far, far away I need a vacation while I'm still young Playin' in the sands, Liftin' up my hands Singin' la-de-da Singin' la-de-da I need a vacation while I'm still young Swimmin' in the sea, Dancin' in the streets Singin' la-de-da Singin' la-de-da I need a vacation Caught up in the rhythm of the day to day I've gotta lot of life to live And no time to play You see, time ticks slow when you're stuck in the game Every second is a dagger to my brain Workin' hard on sunny days Watchin' seasons slowly fade Locked inside my corporate cage It keeps goin' again and again I, I wish I could sail through the night Somewhere you could never find Far, far away I need a vacation while I'm still young Playin' in the sand, Liftin' up my hands Singin' la-de-da Singin' la-de-da I need a vacation while I'm still young Swimmin' in the sea, Dancin' in the streets Singin' la-de-da Singin' la-de-da I need a vacation La-de-da-de-da-de-da La-de-da-de-da-de-da La-de-da-de-da-de-da La-de-da-de-da-de-da I wish I could fly, fly away I wish I could sail through the night Drifting along with the sea Lost to the clouds in the sky I need a vacation while I'm still young Playin' in the sand, Liftin' up my hands Singin' la-de-da Singin' la-de-da I need a vacation while I'm still young Playin' in the sand, Liftin' up my hands Singin' la-de-da Singin' la-de-da I need a vacation while I'm still young Swimmin' in the sea Dancin' in the streets Singin' la-de-da Singin' la-de-da I need a vacation I need a vacation
