Permanent Vacation Lyrics

You say that I'm too complicated
Hung up and mis-educated
I say nine to five is overrated
And we all fall down

I can't sleep 'cause my mind keeps racing
My chest hurts 'cause my heart keeps breaking
I'm so numb and I can't stop shaking
And we all fall down

Frustration, desperation
You say I need some kind of medication
Situation, no motivation
Destination, permanent vacation

Hey, I'm doing fine
And I know I'm out of line
So let's sing this one more time
It goes
Destination, permanent vacation

Na-na, na-na na na

Voices coming through the speaker
They can't make me a believer
I know I'm an under-achiever
And we're all so proud

Watch out, I think we're going under
Right now, you're just another number
Get out, the system's in the gutter
And we're all so proud

Frustration, desperation
You say I need some kind of medication
Situation, no motivation
Destination, permanent vacation

Hey, I'm doing fine
And I know I'm out of line
So let's sing this one more time
It goes
Destination, permanent vacation

Hey, I'm doing fine
And I know I'm out of line
So let's sing this one more time
It goes
Destination, permanent vacation

Na-na, na-na na na na na
Na-na, na-na na na na na

Congratulations, your imitations
Are taking over the radio stations
Corporations, calculations
We're the voice of the new generation

Congratulations, your imitations
Are taking over the radio stations
Corporations, calculations
We're the voice of the new generation

Hey, I'm doing fine
And I know I'm out of line
So let's sing this one more time
It goes
Destination, permanent vacation

Hey, I'm doing fine
And I know I'm out of line
So let's sing this one more time
It goes

Destination, permanent vacation

Na-na, na-na na na na na
Na-na, na-na na na na na
Na-na, na-na na na na na

Destination, permanent vacation

The repeated phrase "destination, permanent vacation" symbolizes a desire to escape these constraints permanently. Themes of mental strain, lack of motivation, and resistance to conformity are prevalent throughout the song, making it an expressive outcry against conventional paths and advocating for personal freedom and authenticity.
