Going Away

Going away, I'm going away, I'm going away from home
 I'm going away, I'm going away, I'm going away from home
 But before I leave, there are some things I'm gonna need
 Got my soap and towel and toothpaste, my sunscreen and my shoes
 My name sewn in my underwear, so no one gets confused
 Leave my turtle for my brother, teach him how to feed my snakes
 Make sure that my grandmother knows where to send the cupcakes
 I'm going going away, I'm going away, I'm going away from home
 I'm going away, I'm going away, I'm going away from home
 But before I'm through, there are some things I've gotta do
 Take the TV from my grampa's room and all his DVD's
 Cause I may not come back so soon, a day or two at least
 Take my Aunt Sally's harmonica that I might learn to play
 And the blue tee shirt with the hole in the shoulder
 That I wear every day
 I'm going away, I'm going away, I'm going away from home
 I'm going away, I'm going away, I'm going away from home
 But before I leave, there are some things I'm gonna need
 Before I'm through, there are some things I've gotta do
 Got my soap and towel and toothpaste, my sunscreen and my shoes
 My name sewn in my underwear, so no one gets confused
 Leave my turtle for my brother, teach him how to feed my snakes
 My address for my grandmother so that she can mail me cupcakes
 The tee shirt and the TV, the harmonica and DVDs
 Cause I don't know what I might need, I might be gone a week
 Alarm clock, pet rock, my easy chair
 Sweat socks, headphones, stopwatch
 Book about Sasquatch, spray paint, compass, a cushion for my rumpus
 A ladle, and a radio, and Oreos
 And I know, my dad bought me a flashlight
 Some ointment for a bug bite, a pen so maybe I'll write home
 All right
 I'm going away, I'm going away, I'm going away from home
 I'm going away, I'm going away, I'm going away from home
 But before I leave, there are some things I'm gonna need
 Before I'm through, there are some things I've gotta do
 I'm going away for forever and a day
 I'm going away from home
 Mmm
 Clap, clap!
