Holiday Break

(Toronto, Ontario)

Winter is here, the students set free
Exams were a bust, but 'D' stands for 'degree'
Take a deep breath for it's all said and done,
Time to be with friends and have tons of fun!

Go home to relax? No that's just not the case,
Grab a 12-pack and pick a home base
Text all your buds, "My place for a few"
We've been friends for so long old stories feel new

The days will get shorter, time seems to get quicker
Cause when you're with pals it's all fun, food and liquor
Family? Sure you'll see them too
But for now they can wait while you just do you!
