A Holiday From My Vacation - Imperial State Electric

Got down to a grave decision

And decided to give it a go

As my doubts became revelations

I told my poor self

«Man, I told you so»

Streets of gold

And skies so starry

Gonna get me some history

Ended up on a sad safari

Through a sorry ass

State of human misery

Got it all like I thought I would

Got more and I got it good

But I never fully understood

I need a holiday from my vacation

Need to recuperate from recreation

I gotta get away

I need a holiday from my vacation

I faced facts

I faced the muzac

Blasting soft and loud

I’ve had enough

I gotta get on back

Can’t stand another

Elevator facing the crowd

Knee deep in exploitation

Its good for the economy

So here I am for some relaxation

Basking in the deepest

Of despondencies
