Lyrics Crystal Bowersox – Staycation
Text:
It’s my first day off in a 60 hour
5 minute shower 7 day charade
Hooray, for gettin’ paid
But my family says
When you get home you’re someone else
Someone who could really use a break
You could be fishin’ on a lake
If you waste your life
Just trying to survive
Well that ain’t livin’
Before you know it your kids are 45
Let’s do some backyard campin’
Spin you round
Do some dining room dancin’
Make sweet love in our driveway in our car
Pretend we live in Hawaii
Gettin’ leahed
Babe you’re makin’ me crazy
We don’t even have to go that far
Throw it on the grill
Wrap it up in bacon
In paradise
On this staycation
Whoah
Whoah
Bossman called me Sunday mornin’
Without a warnin’ he asked if I’d come in
I said no way
I told him to go to hea-ven
Even with insurance
You won’t have health
When I leave home my sanity’s at stake
How many sick days can I take
To do some backyard campin’
Spin you round
Do some dining room dancin’
Make sweet love in our driveway in our car
Pretend we live in Hawaii
Gettin’ leahed
Babe you’re makin’ me crazy
We don’t even have to go that far
Throw it on the grill
Wrap it up in bacon
In paradise
On this staycation
Hmmmm
Yeah
Whoah I want to fly
Just like an eagle
Let that spirit carry me
I want to fly
Just like an eagle
Oh don’t you know don’t you know
Time keeps on slippin’ slippin’ slippin’
Into the future
You only get so much yeah
Don’t you know time keeps on slippin’ slippin’ slippin’
Into the future
Oh don’t you waste a minute of it no
Well we’re all agreed
The mountaintop is something that we need
To breathe
Tick tock the clock goes around inside of me
Please believe
Oh there’s more to life than money
Do some backyard campin’
Do some dining room dancin’
Make sweet love in your driveway in your car
Pretend you live in Hawaii
Oh gettin’ leahed
Babe you’re makin’ me crazy
We don’t even have to go that far
Throw it on the grill
Wrap it up in bacon
Aww fuck it
Wrap everything in bacon
We’re already livin’ in paradise
On this staycation
Ohhh everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Just hold me tight
Hold me tight
Hold me tight
