Lyrics

Government Vacation

Take me on a government vacation
Fill me with sedation
Lalala...
Lalala...
Take me on a government vacation
Fill me with sedation
Lalala...
Lalala...

I could be a saint it won't make the news
I could rob a bank, buy a crown and jewels
Make a bit of money on the side line
Sell little drugs for a short time
I could be addict it wouldn't matter
I used to have dreams but they all shattered
Like a mirror falling from the wall
If you cared you'd would call
But they never do, uh, uh

Take me on a government vacation
Fill me with sedation
Lalala...
Lalala...
Take me on a government vacation
Fill me with sedation
Lalala...
Lalala...

It could be the fact that I'm born to lose
It could be the world underneath my shoes
I don't really know, I can't say why
You ain't seen earth through my eyes
Built for the few not for many
I'm bored of the suits talkin on the telly
They don't know a thing about my life
Tell me who's held you up with a flip knife?

Nobody I'm sure as hell
No balifs on your door bell
You don't know how I do feel
I've had enough can you tell

Take me on a government vacation
Fill me with sedation
Lalala...
Lalala...
Take me on a government vacation
Fill me with sedation
Lalala...
Lalala...

Take me on a government vacation
Fill me with sedation
Lalala...
Lalala...
Take me on a government vacation
Fill me with sedation
Lalala...
Lalala...

I've spoke my words ya don't listen
Gonna wanna kill that politician
I'll make sure he's body's missing
Yes I got a mental condition
(Hahaha) In my head
