Stuck at home again
I watch the pouring rain
Going nowhere and I've
only got myself to blame

Something always gets in my way

So I turn the telly on
They say I should have gone
if I want to go, here's all the things
they think I need to know
Just a day or two
A couple of weeks would do

Something always gets in my way
All I need is a holiday
Ho-li-day

Chorus

Holiday, when am I gonna get away?
Holiday, before I pass away
Holiday, holiday

Anywhere else but here
A different time of year
Somewhere I can be away from anything too near
I'm sick of conversation
I don't care about inflation
I'm gonna make a reservation
when I get my destination clear

Something always gets in my way
All I need is a holiday
Ho-li-day

Holiday, when am I gonna get away?
Holiday, before I pass away
Holiday, holiday

Holiday, when am I gonna get away?
Holiday, before I pass away
Holiday, holiday

Holiday, all I need is a...
Holiday, and all I want is a...
Holiday, holiday
