[Intro]
Holiday
Celebrate
Holiday
Celebrate

[Chorus]
If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate
Just one day out of life
It would be
It would be so nice

[Verse 1]
Everybody spread the word
We're gonna have a celebration
All across the world
In every nation

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s time for the good times
Forget about the bad times, oh yeah
One day to come together, to release the pressure
We need a holiday

[Chorus]
If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate (Come on, let's celebrate)
Just one day out of life (Holiday)
It would be
It would be so nice
If we took a holiday (Ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
Took some time to celebrate (Come on, let's celebrate)
Just one day out of life (Just one day out of life)
It would be
It would be so nice

[Verse 2]
You can turn this world around
And bring back all of those happy days
Put your troubles down
It’s time to celebrate

[Pre-Chorus]
Let love shine
And we will find
A way to come together and make things better
We need a holiday

[Chorus]
If we took a holiday (Holiday)
Took some time to celebrate (Celebrate)
Just one day out of life (Just one day)
It would be
It would be so nice

Just one day out of life (Holiday)
