Screeching Weasel - Beginningless Vacation lyrics

rate me

When I went to bed the other night something terrible occurred to me:

What if I awoke and found myself in an alternate reality?

Among the people waiting for the train

Standing there dejected in the rain

Dreaming up an island far away - beginningless vacation

In another life and time it seemed that everything was beautiful

Now I’m in a jacket and a tie and I’m sitting in a cubicle

But I’m working up a master plan

Oh, my wife and kids won’t hold me back

Something’s gotta give before I crack - beginningless vacation

Oh, when I finally get through this pile of debt

I will be free to make my way

I’ll move to London or learn to fly a jet

Then I can finally fly away

One of these days I’m going to leave and I’ll never go to work again

It’ll be the last they see of me - I’ll be following my heart instead

But it’s always much more fun to dream

Than to run off doing crazy things

If it means I’m risking poverty - beginningless vacation

At least I have the weekends all to me

Holidays and summer hours free

I can always dream about my sweet beginningless vacation

Beginningless vacation [x2]
