LYRICS: I’ve got my bucket, I’ve got my spade, I’ve got my hat and my sun-cream too. It’s the perfect day for a holiday, Are we nearly there yet? I’m bored, I’m bored, you said it wasn’t far! I’m bored, so bored, Are we nearly there yet? 1 mile, 2 miles, 3 miles, 4 I can’t take it anymore! We’re no closer to the shore, Are we nearly there yet? #VFVirtualSing is proudly sponsored by Bain Capital Europe Children’s Fund.
