Holiday in Waikiki - The Kinks
I always forget about that one, but probably because the Kinks'
OTHER vacation song, called (what else?) "Holiday" is one of my faves. Off
Muswell Hillbillies, natch.
"Lyin' on the beach, my back burned rare,
The salt gets in my blisters and sand gets in my hair,
The sea's an open sewer but I really couldn't care,
I'm breathing through my mouth so I don't have to sniff the air.
"Oh holiday,
Oh what a lovely day today,
I'm so glad they sent me away,
To have a little holiday."
