"Vacation" is a song originally performed by The Go-Go's, covered by The Chipmunks and The Chipettes, in the Alvin and the Chipmunks episode Staying Afloat. A different cover of the song was performed by both groups featuring BASKO in the third CGI/live-action film, Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, and is a part of the Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked: Music from the Motion Picture soundtrack.
Episode Version
The Chipmunks & The Chipettes: Can't seem to get my mind off of you Back here at home there's nothing to do (ooo) Now that I'm away I wish I'd stayed Tomorrow's a day of mine that you won't be in When you looked at me I should have run But I thought it was just for fun I see I was wrong And I'm not so strong I should have known all along that time would tell
Vacation all I ever wanted Vacation had to get away Vacation meant to be spent alone (Repeat)
