The Swirling Eddies - Ed Takes A Vacation (A Suite) lyrics

He's just another joe who works too hard Loves his wife and four kids Gotta house and a yard He gets a little touchy now -- he's on overload He needs to get away With a couple weeks pay Just to lighten his load When Ed takes a vacation (the world goes 'round) When Ed takes a vacation (we're still on track) When Ed takes a vacation (we won't shut down) But we'll feel a whole lot better when Ed gets back He finds it difficult to leave his work behind He's wearin' his lab coat To go walkin' through the pines He's got the Gideon bible in the hotel room He prays, then he reads Cos' he really believes He'll be goin' home soon When Ed takes a vacation (the world goes 'round) When Ed takes a vacation (we're still on track) When Ed takes a vacation (we won't shut down) But we'll feel a whole lot better wehn Ed has. . Fun fun fun, summer means fun He'll be out there havin' fun In the warm California sun It's a little bit o' heaven when you're out there havin' fun Ed is just an ordinary guy People always underrate him But they do appreciate him By and by Ed loves his mom and apple pie He's honest and he's upright But perhaps a little uptight That is why We'll send him on his way Where the flowers and the palm trees sway all day With his camera and his flower lei He'll be thinkin' 'bout work 'cos he's a working jerk And that's all he thinks about all day Hey yeah Oo la la la oo la la la oo la la la, etc Oo oh lay It's not that easy to be an Everyman To be good and decent And do the best you can But that's our Ed, and this here is his song So we'll give a big "YO" To the hard workin' joes Who keep this country strong Now if you think of Ed today You gotta keep him in your prayers Cos' the Ed's of this world Are something rare Fun fun fun summer means fun Oo la la la oo la la la oo la la la oo la la la Oo oh lay EEEEEEEEEEEED!!!!!!!
