Screeching Weasel - Beginningless Vacation Lyrics

When I went to bed the other night
Something terrible occurred to me
What if I awoke and found myself
In an alternate reality?
Among the people waiting for the train
Standing there dejected in the rain
Dreaming up an island far away
Beginningless vacation

In another life and time it seemed
That everything was beautiful
Now I'm in a jacket and a tie
And I'm sitting in a cubicle
But I'm working up a master plan
Oh, my wife and kids won't hold me back
Something's gotta give before I crack
Beginningless vacation

Oh, when I finally get through
This pile of debt
I will be free to make my way
I'll move to London or learn to fly a jet
Then I can finally fly away

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

One of these days I'm gonna leave
And I'll never go to work again
It'll be the last they see of me
I'll be following my heart instead
But it's always much more fun to dream
Than to run off doing crazy things
If it means I'm risking poverty
Beginningless vacation

At least I have the weekends all to me
Holidays and summer hours free
I can always dream about my sweet
Beginningless vacation

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
