We're up the creek without a paddle
Finances weak, in fact they're addled
Things have been bleak, but now it's sweet summertime
What say you this – let's get the map down
Pick a few points, maybe at random
That makes a route – let's get the bicycles out

Let's see the furthest we can travel in an hour (woh woh oo)
Let's see the furthest we can travel in a day (woh woh oo)
Let's see the furthest we can travel in a year (woh woh oo)
Let's see the most unusual things that we can see
There is such eccentricity to gobble

We're up the creek without a paddle
Finances weak, in fact they're addled
Things have been bleak, but now it's sweet summertime
What say you this – let's work to order
Pack up some snacks, a drink of water
That's all we need – let's get the bicycles out

The simple pleasure of a journey somewhere new
The buried treasure of an unexpected view
There are a thousand places we can see
And oh my darling even better than arriving is to travel hopefully
So break it down, please

Ahh – the simple pleasure of a journey somewhere new
Ahh - the buried treasure of an unexpected view
Ahh – a gentle measure of an undercluttered day
Ahh – it's quite enough to make a Keshcologist say (and I say)

We're up the creek without a paddle
Finances weak, in fact they're addled
Things have been bleak, but now it's sweet summertime
What say you this – let's take the path down
On through the next expanse of woodland
Sehr wunderbar! Let's get the bicycles out
Ohhh and I feel alive – I could be human
And you look just fine – you could be human
We've all the time – be honest, decent and true
Because the only thing that's better than adventure is adventuring with you!
