back to chorus again and finish!
Bags packed and by the door,
They've been there for a week or so
Passport is looking worn,
In the picture I look 12 years old
Outside the weather's cold,
I'm wearing every sweater I own
It's hot there so I've been told,
Won't be wearing nothing at all
This is goodbye
Catching our flight tonight
Can't stay
Going away today
We'll get lost and find ourselves in a foreign land
We'll swim in seas and lie on sand
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
Shades and bikini babes,
I'm planning on a drink or two
Hang 10 and catch some waves,
I've forgotten everyone I knew
This is goodbye
Catching out flight tonight
Can't stay
Going away today
We'll get lost and find ourselves in a foreign land
We'll swim in seas and lie on sand
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
I've left home, you're home alone
No wifi or mobile phone
Now that the open road is all I know
I've left home, you're home alone
No wifi or mobile phone
Now that the open road is all I know
Get lost and find yourself in a foreign land
Go swim in seas and lie on sand
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
We're English kids in America!
We're English kids in America!

Bags packed and by the door,
They've been there for a week or so
Passport is looking worn,
In the picture I look 12 years old
Outside the weather's cold,
I'm wearing every sweater I own
It's hot there so I've been told,
Won't be wearing nothing at all
This is goodbye
Catching our flight tonight
Can't stay
Going away today
We'll get lost and find ourselves in a foreign land
We'll swim in seas and lie on sand
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
Shades and bikini babes,
I'm planning on a drink or two
Hang 10 and catch some waves,
I've forgotten everyone I knew
This is goodbye
Catching out flight tonight
Can't stay
Going away today
We'll get lost and find ourselves in a foreign land
We'll swim in seas and lie on sand
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh

Go swim in seas and lie on sand
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
Singing "Wha-wha-oh, wha-wha-ohhh
We're English kids in America!"
We're English kids in America!
We're English kids in America!
