I've worked in this factory far too long
00:11
Can't remember when I last had
00:14
Some time to breathe and be on my own
00:18
And to do things just for a laugh
00:21
To be a clown, to paint the town
00:24
Where the sunshine can heal my bones
00:28
In five more days I'll be on my way
00:31
Then my fantasies will unfold
00:35
'Cause there are five more days 'til summer
00:38
Takes me away
00:41
There are five more days 'til summer
00:46
Five more days 'til summer
00:50
Five more days 'til summer
00:53
Takes me away
00:56
I work on the night shift until the dawn
01:07
My whole life has been in the dark
01:11
I sleep all day 'til the moon's in play
01:14
Like a vampire in a box
01:18
Without a sound, no one around
01:22
I awaken to feel the cold
01:25
To do again just like yesterday
01:28
With this emptiness in my soul
01:32
But there are five more days 'til summer
01:35
Takes me away
01:39
There are five more days 'til summer
01:43
Five more days 'til summer
01:47
Five more days 'til summer
01:50
Takes me away
01:53
Takes me away
01:57
Takes me away
02:00
There are five more days 'til summer
02:41
Takes me away
02:46
There are five more days 'til summer
02:50
Five more days 'til summer
02:55
Takes me away
02:58
Takes me away
03:16
Takes me away
03:19
'Way
03:22
One, two, three, four, five days 'til summer
03:00
One, two, three, four, five days 'til summer
03:04
One, two, three, four, five days 'til summer
03:08
One, two, three, four, five days 'til summer
03:12
Five more days 'til summer
03:16
Five more days 'til summer
03:19
Takes me away
03:22
Takes me away
03:25
Takes me away
03:29

I've worked in this factory far too longCan't remember when I last had
Some time to breathe and be on my own
And to do things just for a laugh
To be a clown, to paint the town
Where the sunshine can heal my bones
In five more days I'll be on my way
Then my fantasies will unfold
'Cause there are five more days 'til summer
Takes me away
There are five more days 'til summer
Five more days 'til summer
Five more days 'til summer
Takes me away
I work on the night shift until the dawn
My whole life has been in the dark
I sleep all day 'til the moon's in play
Like a vampire in a box
Without a sound, no one around
I awaken to feel the cold
To do again just like yesterday
With this emptiness in my soul
But there are five more days 'til summer
Takes me away
There are five more days 'til summer
Five more days 'til summer
Five more days 'til summer
Takes me away
Takes me away
Takes me away
There are five more days 'til summer
Takes me away
There are five more days 'til summer
Five more days 'til summer
Takes me away
Takes me away
Takes me away

Five more days 'til summer
Takes me away
Takes me away
Takes me away
