Go take a Holiday

Go take a holiday, somewhere so quiet,

And if need be, leave your pets with the vet;
f
Then maybe go on a train for a trip to the sea,

Might be Adelaide, or Perth, enjoy the scenery.

Go take a holiday, to the far north, on a jet plane,

To cairns, or Darwin, where, no where is it the same;

What about take a glass bottom boat to an island or two,

But; don't get seasick, or get stung, it's a warning for you.

Go for a holiday, to the Mornington peninsula, to a flat,

Try Rosebud, or Sorrento, to the folks, have a chat;

Go to the back beach, feed the lively seagulls there,

They love to eat your picnic meal, they say share.

Go take a holiday, to Philip Island, in the car,

It takes almost a day to get there, it's so far;

You'll see the penguins and a seal or two,

Some koalas in the trees, and kangaroos too.

Go take a holiday, over on the car ferry,

To Tasmania, all night, out on the rough sea;

Then go see the pioneer settlements, down there,

Then up to the German village, some tasty food to share.

Go take a holiday, to the big rock, Uluru, see the view,

Be careful of the dingoes, and the snakes, they'll bite you;

Take the train then, but on four legs with a hump,

I mean a 12 camel train, the ride will give you a bump.

Whenever you decide to go when you go away,

Whatever state you decide, have a safe holiday;

Pray before you go, for safety, for your family,

And don't drive unsafely, be wise, do go sleepy.
