Hasta la vista
Camp Rock Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Couldn't wait to leave, but now I hate to go
Last day of camp, packing my bags slow
Made so many friends, why does it have to end
In the end its a win, because we grown so close together
Remember when we first met, first day
Figured this would be no fun, no way
And now its time to leave, but now we wanna stay, stay, stay, oh
Hasta la vista
I'm gonna say goodbye to you
Whatever happens I'll be cool with you
Wanna give me your number I'll call ya
Promise I won't forget ya
Hasta la vista
We'll all be going separate ways
Say everything you didn't say
This is your moment, before you go
Come on now get up and show them

Keep doing your thing, thing, thing
Keep doing your thing, thing, thing
(And I'm gonna do my thing)

There's so much more inside of me
There's so much more I just want to be
All the things I've seen, obviously I'm inspired
Got love for all the friendships I've acquired
Everybody put a hand up, put a hand up, hey, hey, hey
Everybody put a hand up, put a hand up and say, hey, hey, hey

Keep doing your thing, thing, thing
Keep doing your thing, thing, thing
Keep doing your thing, thing, thing
Keep doing your thing, thing, thing

H-A-S-T-A (Hasta la vista!)

Overall Meaning

The song "Hasta La Vista" from the movie Camp Rock captures the essence of the last day of summer camp, with its bittersweet feelings of leaving behind newfound friends, memories, and experiences. The first verse shows how the singer initially couldn't wait to leave, but now hates to go, and is packing bags slowly, indicating a reluctance to leave the place and the people. The line "made so many friends, why does it have to end," expresses the pain of saying goodbye to these friends and wondering if they will ever meet again. However, the chorus provides a positive spin, urging everyone to say goodbye with a smile, promising to be cool and not forget each other, and encouraging them to share their feelings and make the most of this moment.


The second verse sheds light on how the singer's perception of camp changed since the first day, when they thought it would be no fun, but now they don't want to leave. The line "keep doing your thing, and I'm gonna do my thing," emphasizes the individuality of each person in pursuing their dreams and aspirations. The bridge emphasizes the growth and knowledge gained throughout the camp experience and the inspiration to be more than what they were. The song ends on a high note, with the catchy repetition of "Hasta La Vista" conveying the sense of excitement and anticipation for the future, despite the sadness of parting ways.

I never realized that the lyrics are sad but the beat made it so cool that you forget they're singing about leaving their friends and going separate ways .

@Musickt196

I think it's just about camp ending. Wasn't this performance at the end of camp?

@griffinmiller9012

@@Musickt196 yes it was. I felt like the song was about saying goodbye to your friends but also saying that I’ll see you again imo

@thestephenelder1996

They eventually stole the show with this song too
