[English]
(energetic music)
♪ It's hard to wake up ♪
♪ When the shades have been pulled shut ♪
♪ This house is haunted ♪
♪ It's so pathetic, it makes no sense at all ♪
♪ I'm ripe with things to say ♪
♪ The words rot and fall away ♪
♪ What stupid poem, could fix this home ♪
♪ I'd read it every day ♪
♪ So here's your holiday ♪
♪ Hope you enjoy it this time ♪
♪ You gave it all away ♪
♪ It was mine ♪
♪ So when you're dead and gone ♪
♪ Will you remember this night ♪
♪ Twenty years now lost ♪
♪ It's not right ♪
♪ Their anger hurts my ears ♪
♪ Been running strong for seven years ♪
♪ Rather than fix the problems ♪
♪ They never solve them, it makes no sense at all ♪
♪ I see them everyday ♪
♪ We get along so why can't they ♪
♪ If this is what he wants ♪
♪ And it's what she wants ♪
♪ Then why is there so much pain ♪
♪ So here's your holiday ♪
♪ Hope you enjoy it this time ♪
♪ You gave it all away ♪
♪ It was mine ♪
♪ So when you're dead and gone ♪
♪ Will you remember this night ♪
♪ Twenty years now lost ♪
♪ It's not right ♪
♪ So here's your holiday ♪
♪ Hope you enjoy it this time ♪
♪ You gave it all away ♪
♪ It was mine ♪
♪ So when you're dead and gone ♪
♪ Will you remember this night ♪
♪ Twenty years now lost ♪
♪ It's not right ♪
♪ It's not right ♪
♪ It's not right ♪
♪ It's not right ♪
