Rented a house out by the bay
I gotta escape I gotta, get away
Spendin’ all day out in the sun
Just relaxing and, having fun

(Chorus)
We gotta get out of here
Gotta forget our jobs and face our fears
We gotta get out
We gotta, skip town
We gotta get the hell out of here

I took my close friends out to the spot
Where the water is clear and time is not
Bonfires, cookouts and, open bars
We drive around the island in my shiny red car

I wish that I could live here
I wish that I could stay here

As the sky darkens, as the sun sets
A sad dawn is breaking, in my head
Paradise isn’t what it seems
Just then I wake up, from my dream

We can’t get out of here
We gotta, work our jobs and face our fears
We can’t get out of here
