Red text means I am not fully certain if a word is correct.


Welcome to the land of the cruise ship soldiers
15 stories high
Here it comes, moves on the horizon
Birds flying by

Gotta get ready, gotta get ready
Excitement high in the air
Gotta get ready, gotta get ready
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

10-4 lined up and ready
Arrived and just minutes away
Announcements coming up to tell me
I always do what they say

(Oh, yeah!)
I'm so emotional
(Oh, yeah!)
Can't wait for the day
(Oh, yeah!)
We're waking up in wonderland
On a cruise ship holiday

(Oh, yeah!)
I'm so emotional
(Oh, yeah!)
Can't wait for the day
(Oh, yeah!)
We're waking up in wonderland
On a cruise ship holiday

Welcome to the land of the cruise ship soldiers
Wake up in wonderland
Timetable tells me I'm in heaven
Can't wait for the golden sand

Gotta get ready, gotta get ready
Sunscreen everywhere
Gotta get ready, gotta get ready
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

10-4 lined up and ready
Arrived and just minutes away
Announcements coming up to tell me
I always do what they say

(Oh, yeah!)
I'm so emotional
(Oh, yeah!)
Can't wait for the day
(Oh, yeah!)
We're waking up in wonderland
On a cruise ship holiday

(Oh, yeah!)
I'm so emotional
(Oh, yeah!)
Can't wait for the day
(Oh, yeah!)
We're waking up in wonderland
On a cruise ship holiday

We can fly (people get ready)
We can fly (people get ready)

(Oh, yeah!)
I'm so emotional
(Oh, yeah!)
Can't wait for the day
(Oh, yeah!)
We're waking up in wonderland
On a cruise ship holiday


Notes

I think a few more lines are sung by Peter but given that I'm not fully sure it's even Peter I don't wanna be too assumptive.

This song was co-written by George Stewart, making it potentially a song from Digital People sessions.
