Blank Space/Spring Break Lyrics

For an assignment in my Human Development class, we were asked to make a teaching tool using all sorts of techniques we discussed in class. The lesson had to be taught through a vehicle, a way that almost anyone can learn or understand something; and a replicator, something that could be reused and applied to another concept. The tool had to apply to any lesson we wanted to teach Fall 2015 incoming study abroad students to our program. I chose to remaster the well known song Blank Space by Taylor Swift, and change it to Spring Break. My friends helped me very much, and I think did a really great job with this product below. Feel free to play the song or preferably the karaoke version in the background and sing along! Maybe you will even learn a thing or two about packing for spring break!

Blank Space / Spring Break

Taylor Swift / Kerry Woods

 

Nice to meet you

Where you been?

I can show you incredible things

 

Grab a backpack and a friend

We got there and I thought oh my god

Look at that place

This looks like my next escape

Break’s a party, wanna play?

 

No money, need a flight

I can find it on sky scanner

It might seem so cheap to fly

But you didn’t see the hidden fees

So hey, read the fine print

Save your euros till the end

Grab your passport and my hand

Make sure you have enough socks for the weekend

 

You might take some pictures, or sleep on lots of trains

You can tell me when it’s over, if the hostel was worth the shower

Got a long list of check-ins

My friends think I’m insane

But I just love to travel, so it was worth the pain

 

Cause we’re young and we’re reckless

We’ll take this world by storm

The views will leave you breathless and make you sad to part

Got a long list of check-ins,

My friends think I’m insane

But I’ve got a passport baby, so stamp your place

 

Sandy beaches, clear blue skies

Oh so many beautiful things

Pretty places, such long lines

Buy your ticket before they sell out

Find out where to walk, take the bus for over three stops

But the worst is yet to come

Oh no!

Walking, blisters, oh my god

I don’t want to pay for a cab

Should have got a metro pass

Then I check the routes like, oh my god

Where am I?

Why didn’t I decide to fly?

But then I would have missed these sights

Cause you wanna buy souvenirs so better pack light

 

You might take some pictures, or sleep on lots of trains

You can tell me when it’s over, if the hostel was worth the shower

Got a long list of check-ins

My friends think I’m insane

But I just love to travel, so it was worth the pain

 

Cause we’re young and we’re reckless

We’ll take this world by storm

The views will leave you breathless and make you sad to part

Got a long list of check-ins,

My friends think I’m insane

But I’ve got a passport baby, so stamp your place

 

Tourists only want selfies if it’s torture,

Don’t say I didn’t, say I didn’t warn you

Tourists only want selfies if it’s torture,

Don’t say I didn’t, say I didn’t warn you

 

You might take some pictures, or sleep on lots of trains

You can tell me when it’s over, if the hostel was worth the shower

Got a long list of check-ins

My friends think I’m insane

But I just love to travel, so it was worth the pain

 

Cause we’re young and we’re reckless

We’ll take this world by storm

The views will leave you breathless and make you sad to part

Got a long list of check-ins,

My friends think I’m insane

But I’ve got a passport baby, so stamp your place
