Lyrics for Holiday by The Kinks
Songwriters: Davies, Ray
And the sea's an open sewer, but I really couldn't care
Oh holiday, oh, what a lovely day today
I don't need no sleeping pills to help me sleep sound
And the salt gets in my blisters and the sand in my hair
But I'd rather be here than in that dirty old town
I think, I'll get down on my little knees and pray, thank you Lord
I'm breathing through my mouth so I don't have to sniff the air
Lying on the beach with my back burned rare
I'm oh, so glad they sent me away
I don't need no sedatives to slow me down
Oh holiday, oh, what a lovely day today
I had to leave the city 'cos it didn't broke me down
Sometimes I think that sun ain't never coming out
To have a little holiday today, holiday
To have a little holiday
Thank heaven for this holiday today, holiday
I'm leaving insecurity behind me
To share my little holiday
Holiday and I'm just standing on the edge of a pier
Hoping and dreaming you were here
I'm so glad they sent me away
Oh holiday, oh, what a lovely day today
The environmental pressures got me down
Lookin' in the sky, for a gap in the clouds
