So tired of the race you were out of your face    When you said that you'd take a vacation    Away from the pain and the mind numbing strain    Of your drastically changed situation    Your friends said you should it would do you some good    To break out of that morbid routine    You've been here a day it's not easy to say    But you're starting to see what they mean    Standby for Majorca sunshine and beer    Escape from the rain eases the pain but I wish you were here    You sit by the pool and you feel like a fool    'Cos your mind doesn't match what you're wearing    All morning you fought in your heart 'cos you thought    You'd be left with this burden you're bearing    You're starting to brood there's a change in the mood    So you go for a walk in the sand    There might be a way this could all be OK    It just won't be the way that you planned    Standby for Majorca sunshine and beer    It's ninety degrees under the trees but I wish you were here    You're taking some stick 'cos you're dressed up so slick    And you're starting to fancy your chances    Still bored with the pub you'd endure the flash club    As a means to some short term romances    There's one in the queue and she's staring at you    And it's making you feel so alive    It might be sometime 'till you'd call yourself fine    But at least you're now gonna survive    Standby for Majorca sunshine and beer    It's great to unwind far from the grind but I wish you were here
