Holiday (Album: "Contra" (2010)) (VAMPIRE WEEKEND LYRICS)





.
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
