08 - Holiday

from Start A Fire by March

lyrics

It doesn't come easily
Except for you it does
It's just one of the little things
That you did to earn our trust
It started out innocent
Almost as if it was
You take a little reward
For all the things that you've done for us
It carries on endlessly
Cause that's the way it works
How can you run our lives
If you join us in the dirt?

Paid for your time
Paid for your fine meals
Laid on china plates
Paid flesh and bone
For your new home
Do you believe that it's fair?
Well believe it

Do you need a holiday
Like I need a holiday
Everybody could use a vacation
Everybody should get away
But they need a holiday
So everybody gets a kick in the face
And a bill to pay

There are no casualties
Or so you say
That's why your enemies
Let us find out in this way
It's a beautiful symmetry
If it isn't fake
We're making economies
To increase what you get paid
I don't accept your apology
Cause that's not at stake
You'd leave us on our knees
While you go on holiday

Paid for your time
Paid for your fine meals
Laid on china plates
Paid flesh and bone
For your new home
Do you believe that it's fair?
Well believe it

Do you need a holiday
Like I need a holiday
Everybody could use a vacation
Everybody should get away
But they need a holiday
So everybody gets a kick in the face
And a bill to pay
