lyrics

Changing it would be dead
Take a child on holiday
Slits...
Take a child on holiday
Take a child on holiday

Car situations, included in so many places
If it were not changing it would be dead
Take a child on holiday
Take a child on holiday

It was repeated so often she was immobile
A chart was used to draw a line between the slits
Take a child on holiday
Take a child on holiday

Who makes the birds sing at night
Who makes them I ask you
Actually the climate is quite suitable
Let's go outside and get it over

Take a child on holiday
Take a child on holiday
Take a child on holiday
Take a child on holiday
