lyrics

Grass is greener and the girls are keener
When he's on his holiday
From the brochure he's decided it looks kosher
Once he's there he's probably going to stay

Warm burritos, served with cold mojitos
And his favourite cigar
By the first night he'll have cancelled his return flight
As he dances gaily on the bar

The skies are grey at home today
He's off away on holiday

Days are longer and the beer is stronger
And the locals are a scream
By the sea, as he escapes reality
Our boy's the cat that finally got the cream

The skies are grey at home today
He's off away on holiday

Days are longer and the beer is stronger
And the locals are a scream
By the sea, as he escapes reality
Our boy's the cat that finally got the cream
