Lyrics[]
Everyone:
Ever since our family left
The farm for the city so big
Each day has been adventurous
For us and our pig
Tilly:
And our cows and our goats
And our dog and our cat
Cricket:
We sell our crops the whole year through
Tilly:
To survive in the rat race
Bill:
Pinched pennies, dimes, and dollars too
Gramma:
Now I gotta get away from this place
Everyone:
We're going on a Green Family Vacation
Gonna have the best time of our lives
On a Green Family Vacation
Cricket:
Maybe my dad'll let me drive
Bill:
No chance on earth.
Tilly:
So where we goin'?
Bill:
Sorry, guys
Can't tell you, it would spoil the surprise
Everyone:
Green Family Vacation
I can't wait
Bill:
Alright, kids. Go pack your suitcases.
Cricket:
Vacation's about the exciting and new
And getting all the fun things you can get
So to make sure this one's awesome too
I made my dad a pamphlet
It's full of great ideas for trips
Each one wild and cool
So whichever one dad picks
It's guaranteed to rule
Which one will be our...
Everyone:
Green Family Vacation
Cricket:
Maybe surfing mile-high waves?
Everyone:
On a Green Family Vacation
Cricket:
Or hunting gold in caves?
Everyone:
On a Green Family Vacation
Cricket:
Could be that I'll soon be braggin'
Everyone:
On a Green Family Vacation
Cricket:
'Bout riding horses on a dragon
Tilly:
On trips I keep a journal
To note my discoveries
Like the rest stop where we found Bigfoot
Or that giant wheel of cheese
Gramma:
Vacation is for runnin' free
And getting intro scrapes
Dang leg, you best keep up with me
Better give it extra tape
Bill:
It'll be so fun to surprise everyone
With a trip we won't forget
Nancy:
Bill, by all means
I'll watch chateau de Greens
And chill out with your pets
Bill:
I think of them more as our "friendly livestock" than our pets.'
Nancy:
You try rhyming "livestock". See? This is why we got divorced.
Tilly:
Hi, mom!
Cricket:
Bye, mom!
Everyone:
Big City, so long!
We're going on a Green Family Vacation
Tilly:
I'm just ecstatic!
Everyone:
On a Green Family Vacation
Cricket:
It feels so cinematic!
Everyone:
Green Family Vacation
Cricket:
What's in store, a shark safari?
Everyone:
Green Family Vacation
Tilly:
What shall we find?
Gramma:
Who cares? Let's party!
Everyone:
We're on a Green Family Vacation
Cricket:
I could scream family vacation!
Everyone:
On a Green Family Vacation
I can't wait
Tilly:
Papa, where are we going?
Cricket:
If you don't tell me right now, I'll explode!
Tilly:
Please tell us, Papa!
Bill:
Okay, here it is! We're going... On the exact same sightseeing road trip we went on last year!
Cricket:
What!?
Cricket:
I tricked my family into space
Bill:
It created quite the rift
Alice:
There was an epic robot chase
Tilly:
We all ended up adrift
Alice:
That asteroid was no fun, y'know
Tilly:
We might've gained a dent or ding
Cricket:
But that's how vacations go
Bill:
And I wouldn't change a thing!
All:
We're on a Green family vacation
Bill:
The best we ever had!
All:
On a Green family vacation
Cricket:
Same time next year, Dad?
All:
We're on a Green family vacation
We went to space!
On a Green family vacation
Green family vacation
Green family vacation
Green family vacation
Green family vacation
Green family vacation
Green family vacation
Green family vacation
Green family vacation
