Summer vacation out in the sea
Cruising the Gulf on the Jubilee.

My daughter insists that we’ve got to work out
So we’ll be in shape while we’re floating about.

“It’ll be worth it, you’ll look FINE
You work yours and I’ll work mine.

Do your breathing, feet off the floor
Work those abs - just 5 minutes more."

Push ups, sit ups, fun it ain’t
Let me go home, I’m gonna faint.

This will be fun, I’ll be glad that I tried
I’ll conquer that bike tho’ I’ll think that I’ve died.

I need more water, please let me rest
I’m feeling this pounding deep in my chest.

But, for the trip I’ll continue to train
I’ll try to endure my aches and my pains.

And the lesson I’ll learn, and you know that it’s true
This hype about exercise - it’s all bad for you!
