| Lyrics: | Wake up in the morning, must make my bed.
Brush all my teeth, comb the hair on my
head.
Eat all my breakfast while mom makes a fuss.
Then rush out the door barely catching
the bus.
Filling my head with these figures and facts.
When school is over, I take the bus
back,
To chores that are waiting just to be done.
I thought being a kid would be
fun.
Chorus:
We need a vacation from our daily vocation.
Oh, oh, oh.
It's
not easy just being a kid.
We're tired just thinking of all that we did.
We need time away
from all the work and the hum drum,
Oh, oh, oh.
Don't call us, we'll call you.
We
need some time off.
I love playing baseball and soccer you bet.
But this is hard work, you
should see how I sweat.
Hide and seek is not easy. It's serious work.
Climbing up trees
getting covered with dirt.
We keep up this schedule just day after day.
We make our
suggestion, they don't hear what we say.
I'm burning my candle out at both ends.
I'm
taking time off with my friends.
Chorus
Can you picture it now, as we lie on
the beach.
Tall frosty fruit punches just out of reach.
Soaking our troubles away in the
pool.
Don't anyone dare mention school.
We need a vacation, from our kid like
frustration.
Oh, oh, oh.
Don't call us, we'll call you.
We need some time off, we
need some time off.
We're taking time off |
