Holiday

Holiday, O, A Holiday! 
And the best one of the year 
Dozing off underneath my sheets 
While I cover both my ears 

But if I wait for a holiday could it ever stop my fear? 
To go away on a summer’s day never seemed so clear 

Holiday, still so far away 
Our republic on the beach 
I can’t forget just how bad it gets 
When I’m counting on my teeth 

But if I wait for a holiday 
Could it stop my fear? 
To go away on a summer’s day 
Never seemed so clear 

A vegetarian since the invasion 
She’d never seen the word BOMBS 
She’d never seen the word BOMBS blown up 
To 96 point Futura 
She’d never seen an AK 
In a yellowy Day Glo display 
A t-shirt so lovely it turned all the history books grey 

I’ve got wheels, I’ve got cutter spray 
And a healthy sense of worth 
Half of me is the gasoline 
But the other half’s the surf 
So if I wait for a holiday could it stop my fear? 
To go away on a summer’s day never seemed so clear
