Green Day - Deadbeat Holiday Lyrics

Artist: Green Day

Album: Warning

  • Songwriters: Billie Joe Armstrong, Michael Pritchard, Frank E., Iii Wright

Wake up, the house is on fire
And the cat's caught in the dryer
Philosophy's a liar when
Your home is your headstone

Icon is the last chance for hope
When there's no such thing as heroes
Your faith lies in the ditch that
You dug yourself in

Last chance to piss it all away
Nothing but hell to pay
When the lights are goin' down

Oh dead beat holiday celebrate your own decay
There's a vacant sign that's hangin' high
On a noose over your home

Oh dead beat holiday get on your knees and pray
There's a vacant sign that's hangin' high
But at least you're not alone

Christmas lights in the middle of August
Grudges come back to haunt us
Your oldest allies are your long lost enemies

Grounded in a duplex to find
That you're livin' on a landmine
Vacation hotspots is a cemetery drive

Last chance to piss it all away
Nothing but hell to pay
When the lights are going down

Dead beat holiday celebrate your own decay
There's a vacant sign that's hangin' high
On a noose over your home

Dead beat holiday get on your knees and pray
There's a vacant sign that's hangin' high
But at least you're not alone
(All the day)
(Shall I start)

Last chance to piss it all away
Nothing but hell to pay when all you
Want to do, not to give up
(Give up)

Dead beat holiday celebrate your own decay
There's a vacant sign that's hangin' high
On a noose over your home

Oh dead beat holiday get on your knees and pray
There's a vacant sign that's hangin' high
But at least you're not alone

Oh dead beat holiday celebrate your own decay
There's a vacant sign that's hangin' high
On a noose over your home all the day
