Vampire Weekend - Holiday lyrics

rate me

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 stop my fear?

To go away on a summer's day, never seemed so clear

Holiday, still so far away <br />

Our republic on the beach <br />

I can't forget just how bad it gets <br />

When I'm counting on my teeth <br />

<br />

But if I wait for a holiday, could it stop my fear?

To go away on a summer's day, never seemed so clear <br

A vegetarian since the invasion <br />

She'd never seen the word BOMBS <br />

She'd never seen the word BOMBS blown up <br />

To 96 point Futura <br />

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
