• Wild Blue Yonder: Faster than the Speed of Sound

"Holiday"

Drinkin’ my wine, makes me feel fine
Gonna have me a holiday
Poor man’s party, rich man’s daughter
She’s gettin’ hotter and hotter
She’s pushin’ way too hard
I don’t want any part of her way
Drinkin’ my wine, makes me feel fine
Gonna have me a holiday
It’s a holiday, it’s a holiday
Mama, mama, please no more jaguars
I don’t wanna be a rock star
Mama, mama, please no more deckhands
I don’t wanna be a sailor man
Mama, mama, please no more facelifts
I just don’t know which one you is
Mama, mama, please no more husbands
Drinkin’ my wine, wastin’ my time
Hiding out in my rented dream
Lookin’ for attention
A cover story mention in Life magazine
Ask the chauffeur who he knows
Numbers he’s got, lots of those
Drinkin’ my wine, spend'’ my time
Tryin’ to run from this halloween
It’s a holiday, it’s a holiday
Mama, mama, please no more jaguars
I don’t wanna be a rock star
Mama, mama, please no more deckhands
I don’t want to be a sailor man
Mama, mama, please no more facelifts
I just don’t know which one you is
Mama, mama, please no more husbands
I don’t know who my daddy is
