Content   -   A laid-back song in a reggae style, great for the end of the school year, especially for those changing schools.

Lyrics sample - 

Time has come to move along,

Learn to sing a different song.

There’s different places, different faces;

Time to move along.

People come, people go,

Say goodbye, say hello,

There’s different places, different faces;

Time, time to move along.

I gott a say, there’s something cool,

Moving to a brand new school.
