You know I need a little break
To get away for a holiday
So I can see the sun
Cos in the sun they say it’s fun
If you can get some
I could take a train or a boat or an aeroplane
Or I could steal a car
Cos in a car you can got far
It just depends on what kind of car you are

(La-La-La)

I meet a funny looking girl
One a crowded beach in Spain
Her name was Avaline
She said she came to Spain to have a good time
But she was with her mum
Who had a face like a nun in pain
She said her name was Dot
She didn’t half talk a lot
I couldn’t tell she was mad or not

(La-La-La)

Don’t you know - I should have stayed in England
On my polluted beach - with all my special friends
Don’t you know - I should have stayed in England
With my big house and my big car
And all my friends are thereat the bar
