We're waiting for the clock to strike three When it's three o'clock, we'll be free Then it's adios, Looniversity! Summer time is coming, finally!

Say goodbye to teachers, and books See you in September - you schnooks! All summer long, we'll be free! Come on stupid clock, please, strike three!

In the summer I will get a golden tan I will goof off Every second that I can During summer break, I'll see the sights! I will get a kitty and squeeze him tight! I shall find 'ze skunk hunk of my dreams! Wanna hug that kitty til he screams!

Summer is the time to hang with your best friends Our one wish is that the summer never ends!

We have all been waiting patiently Waiting for the clock to set us free We beg for summer on bended knee Come on stupid clock, please Strike three Strike one, strike two, Strike three!

Yerrr out! Cuckoooo! Cuckoo! Cuckoo!

We almost went looney From counting days til June-y Now this afternoon-ey, Summer time is here! Our three months vacation for kids across the nation Whatever your location, It's the best time of the year!

We're tiny, we're toony, We're all a little Looney It's Tiny Toon Adventures, with some summer fun! Now the video's begun

We wachten tot de klok drie uur slaat Als het drie uur is zijn we vrij Je kunt niet wachten tot je naar huis toe gaat Als het zover is zijn we reuzeblij
 * -|Lyrics=

Gooi je boeken maar in de lucht Zie je in september, ik vlucht Heel de zomer lang zijn wij vrij Nog even, om drie uur is 't voorbij

In de zomer lig ik heel graag in de zon Ik doe alles wat ik tijdens school niet kon Tijdens de vakantie reis ik rond Ik knijp een katje fijn, da's niet gezond Ik zoek naar het stinkdier van mijn hart Als ik m'n katje knuffel ziet ie zwart

's Zomers speel je met je beste kameraad Onze wens is dat de school nu snel dichtgaat

Onderdruk je ongeduld met geweld Tot je weer in vrijheid wordt gesteld Alleen nog maar de klok is wat ik zie Kom op, slome klok, sla nou drie Sla één, sla twee, sla drie

Naar huis! Koekoek, koekoek, koekoek.

Wij werden haast gekkie van leren op dit plekkie Snel weg van dit stekkie, het is vakantietijd Drie maanden kamperen, en je hoeft niets te leren Een beetje rond flaneren, 't is de allermooiste tijd

Ken je ACME landgoed, kom daar deze zomer heen Je voelt je vrij, en bent er blij, dus pret voor iedereen We zingen, we springen, we doen heel rare dingen De Tiny Toon Verhalen met veel zomerlol

Wel een hele film vol We're waiting for the clock to strike three When it's three o'clock, we're free You can't wait to go home When the times comes, we'll be really happy
 * -|Translation=

Throw your books in the air I'll see you in September, I'm fleeing We'll be free for the entire summer Just a little longer, at three o'clock it's over

In the summer I like to lay in the sun I'm doing all kinds of things I couldn't do during school During the vacation, I will travel I'm squashing a kitty, that's not healthy I'm looking for the skunk of my heart When I hug my kitty, his vision goes black

In the summer, you'll play with your best buddy Our wish is for the school to close very soon

Greatly surpress your impatience Until you are free again The clock is all I'm seeing Come on, slow clock, strike tree Strike one, strike two, strike three

Go home!

We were almost going crazy, from learning at this place Let's get away from this spot quickly, it's time for vacation Camping for three months, and you don't have to learn anything Just hanging out, it's the best time ever

Do you know ACME Acres, come here this summer You'll feel free, and will be happy, so fun for everyone We sing, we jump, we do a lot of crazy things The Tiny Toon Stories with a lot of summer fun

An entire movie full of it

Vi venter på at klokka blir tre, for da får vi fri fra dette Toonyversitet, good bye, farvell Sommerferien kom allikevel
 * -|Lyrics=

Si farvel til lærern uten snufs Ser deg igjen til høsten, din tufs Hele sommern skal vi ha fred Kom igjen nå klokke, slå tre

Nå til sommern skal jeg nok bli veldig brun Jeg skal sløse bort hvert eneste sekund Om sommern er det mye rart å se Jeg vil finne en pus å kose med Jeg vil finne stinkern i mitt liv Jeg skal klemme pus til den sier pip

Sommern skal man dele med minst en god gutt og vi ønsker ferien tok aldri slutt Vi har alle ventet lenge nå, venter på at klokka snart skal slå

Vi gleder oss til sommerferie, kom nå, dumme klokke, slå tre, slå en, slå to, slå tre!

Gdy już wybije trzecia, to my, Zgłupiejemy wszyscy, jak nic. I nauka nasza pójdzie w las! Na wakacje każdy czeka z nas.
 * -|Lyrics=

Nie weźmiemy książek do rąk! Tego co je weźmie, pod sąd! Dla nas ważna cyfra to trzy, Wybij więc zegarku ją w mig!

Dwa miesiące być pod słońcem, to jest to! Można zgłupieć, oto zresztą wszystkim szło!

A ja cały świat zwiedzę wzdłuż i wszerz, Mnie pokocha, o tym wiem, każdy zwierz! Mnie uwiedzie skunksa miły swąd. Kotek pozna uścisk moich rąk!

Można poznać na wakacjach świnek w bród. Lato dla nas ważne jak dla pszczółek miód!

Niech godzina trzecia będzie już, Pozostanie po nas tylko kurz. Dziś upada na kolana szkolna bracz, Wybij w końcu trzecią, licz raz, licz dwa, licz trzy, licz w mig!

Już przyszły wakacje, czas dobry na wariacje, i każdy ma racje, Że nie uczy się! Ognisko zapłonie, lew leśny się ugoni, Lecz pogoń też swój urok ma, W ucieczce zwiedzisz świat!

Na wakacjach animacja swoją rację ma. Pośród plaż, chmur, i miast, na wakacje czas! Gdzie słońce i plaża, tam przygód sto się zdarza, Niech ciepło lata nas nie zraża, nic, a nic!

Na przygody czeka widz!
