Vacation

Vacation

In my head I hear a humming:

Summer, summer summer's coming.

Soon we're going on vacation

But there is a complication:

Day by day the problem's growing-

We don't know yet where we're going!

Mother likes the country best;

That's so she can read and rest.

Dad thinks resting is a bore;

He's for fishing at the shore.

Sailing is my brother's pick;

Sailing makes my sister sick;

She says swimming's much more cool,

Swimming in a swimming pool.

As for me, why, I don't care,

I'd be happy anywhere!

In my head I hear a humming:

Summer, summer, summer's coming.

Soon we're going on vacation

But we have a complication:

Day by day the problem's growing-

Where oh where will we be going?
