Notes
-
- This track has taken a bit of flack for the possibly less than poetic lyrics and the possibly cynical phrase 'easy money.' Indeed, this may have been one of the tracks that one could have dreaded, having seen the tracklist.
- But never judge a book by the cover, or a song by the title. Spring Vacation is a great pop tune, and an instant singalong, and the lyrical theme of unity in strength is hardly controversial.
- Ultimately, pop music isn't about the the lyrics alone, but the way the combination of melody, rhythm and lyrics makes you feel. And with the simple joys expressed by this song, it's a singular success.

Driving around, living the dream
I'm cruising the town, I'm diggin' the scene
I'm not gonna stress, not gonna worry
Doing my best, no need to hurry
Looking ahead, with anticipation
Making each day a new celebration
Seems like it could go on forever
Long as we can all stick together
We used to get around
Get up and hit up
All the hot spots in town.
Spring vacation
Good vibration
Summer weather
We're back together
Easy money
Ain't life money
Hey, what's it to ya
Hallelujah
As for the past
It's all behind us
Happier now
Look where life finds us
Singing our songs is enough reason
Harmony boys is what we believe in!
Some said it wouldn't last
All we can say is
We're still having a blast
Spring vacation
Good vibration
Summer weather
We're back together
Easy money
Ain't life money
Hey, what's it to ya
Hallelujah
Every night's special occasion
Spring vacation
Good vibration
Summer weather
We're back together
Easy money
Ain't life money
Hey, what's it to ya
Hallelujah
Spring vacation
Good vibration
