The Strypes - (I need a break from) Holidays lyrics

Sitting on the counter in a rented beige kitchen Trying to decipher weird Spanish television And I don’t know what they’re saying but the ads really speak to me I’m waiting for the part where they tell me shipping’s free There’s a commotion outside; a dispute about the parking The curtains tweak a little, not enough to show me looking And the man greets the gutter with a smile that says “Don’t hit me” Chalk it up to foreign policy and think of home already But if you could get a tan from sitting in the pouring rain I’d do it in a second ’cause I I need a break from holidays I need a break from holidays I need a break from holidays I need a break from holidays “Could you ever have imagined a sight like that?” Says the uncle who tagged along just for the crack And there’s a hush at the table as he cracks out the wishbone And regales us with the tale that the tour guide told everyone God I’m glad I got this deal Apartments in the south of Spain With all my people it’ll be the same As a day off at home And if you could get a tan from sitting in the pouring rain I’d do it in a second ’cause I I need a break from holidays I need a break from holidays I need a break from holidays I need a break from holidays If you could get a tan from sitting in the pouring rain I’d do it in a second ’cause I If you could get a tan from sitting in the pouring rain I’d do it in a second ’cause I If you could get a tan from sitting in the pouring rain I’d do it in a second ’cause I Prey to dodgy chicken and foreign toy instructions We continue our preamble through busy city junctions And if only we could read what the signs were screaming But it wouldn’t be complete without a trip to A&E… I need a break from holidays I need a break from holidays I need a break from holidays I need a break from holidays I need a break! I need a break!
