2x: Na na na na na na na hey hey hey

Eight o'clock get up get outta bed

I feel like a truck went over my head

Another day of stress and sorrow

Skip breakfast cause I gotta go

An't got no time to take it slow

And I will do my hair tomorrow

PRE-CHORUS:

I can't take it no more

Oh no no no

Is this what I'm living for??

CHORUS: 2x

But my uncle John from Jamaica

Keeps on calling every day

Just buy a ticket, and take a

Summer Holy-Holiday

Six o'clock my job is still not done

The live I'm living ain't no fun

Too many days of stress and sorrow

My boss just won't give me a break

And this is more then I can take

Think I will quit this job tomorrow

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS 2x

I Need a (holy-holiday)

You need a (holy-holiday)

We need a (holy-holiday)

Everybody needs a (holy-holiday)

CHORUS 2x
