Percy's Seaside Trip is a song from the fifth season dedicated to Percy taking passengers to the seaside. The tune is based on his theme.
Lyrics
- The sun is shining, it's a lovely day.
- It won't be long before we're on our way.
- The guard is waiting, flag in hand.
- He blows his whistle, we're off to sea and sand.
- The sky is blue, there's not a cloud in sight,
- So much excitement, didn't sleep all night.
- Now Percy's rushing through the countryside,
- With people waving as we (peep peep) whistle by.
- Seaside, we're off to the seaside.
- Ice cream in cones,
- Candy floss on your nose.
- Seaside, we're off to the seaside,
- We're gonna have a lovely day.
- Just one more hill to climb and we'll be there.
- Sounds of the seaside start to fill the air.
- Then someone shouts out excitedly
- "Look over there, everybody, I can see the sea!"
- Seaside, we're off to the seaside,
- Buckets and spades, all the fairground arcades.
- Seaside, we're off to the seaside.
- We're gonna have a lovely day.
- And when it's cold in wintertime,
- Still you can be there any time.
- Just close your eyes, count 1-2-3,
- Dream your dream and once again be by the sea.
- Sir Topham Hatt arrives to greet the train.
- He is so pleased that Percy's right on time.
- So much excitement, so much glee.
- We're all together with Percy by the sea.
- Seaside, we're all at the seaside,
- Building sandcastles with buckets and spades.
- Seaside, we're all at the seaside.
- Oh, what a lovely, lovely, day.
- Seaside, we're all at the seaside,
- Picnics and paddling, swimming all day.
- Seaside, we're all at the seaside,
- Oh, what a lovely, lovely day.
- Thank you, Percy, for such a lovely day.
- Hooray!
