This song is about someone in a mental institution and not aware of it.
A funny farm is a euphemism for an insane asylum.
[Spoken Intro]
Oh, that bit there, look
Listen!
Top notch!
[Verse 1]
Hammer pounding in my heart
I think it's gonna burst
Spring unwinding in my head
I don't know which is worse
I hear you talking
But the words are kinda strange
One of us is crazy and the other one's insane
[Chorus]
Stay calm
Don't be alarmed
It's just a holiday
Back at the funny farm
[Verse 2]
Nothing in this cold white room
To help me recognise
I don't understand why everyone is in disguise
I gotta leave right now
I can't stay here no more
But I'm afraid to try in case they've locked the door
[Chorus]
Stay calm
Don't be alarmed
It's just a holiday
Back at the funny farm
[Guitar Solo 1]
[Verse 3]
Can't find the windows
But I gotta get outside
Can you help me stand?
It feels like both my legs have died
What was that injection?
Cause I think it's going wrong
I really like this jacket
But the sleeves are much too long
[Chorus]
Stay calm
Don't be alarmed
It's just a holiday
Back at the funny farm
[Guitar Solo 2]
