Holiday, the 3rd single and 3rd track off of Qveen Herby’s EP 2, is an anthem for those bogged down by work. Herby talks about how the hard times at work are making her short-tempered, and expresses her desires to get away on a perfect vacation.
[Chorus]
I need a holiday
I been goin' hard like there's somethin' wrong with me
Book a flight for Miami-Dade
I'll lay around by the beach naked
Sip on my favorite thing
Ooh, somebody come do a back massage for me
Sunshine, water ripplin'
It's what I need is a holiday
[Verse 1]
Now, I've been movin' like a train all week
Uh, all this chuggin', took a toll on me (Toll on me)
I put the Hennessy bag in the freezer
I could use, like, a ten day breather
I'm freakin' out but it ain't that deep
Ah, a couple people tried to fuck with me (Fuck with me)
I wished a neighbor was struck by lightning (Ah, yeah)
Lost my zen and I need to find it
[Pre-Chorus]
(I, I, I)
Need to find it
(I, I, I)
On an island
I might get lost in the groove
Put on my grass skirt and hula
(I, I, I)
Like a Buddha
(I, I, I)
Hallelujah
All trouble gone with the breeze
Sing it with me, if you agree
[Chorus]
I need a holiday
I been goin' hard like there's somethin' wrong with me
Book a flight for Miami-Dade
I'll lay around by the beach naked
Sip on my favorite thing
Ooh, somebody come do a back massage for me
Sunshine, water ripplin'
It's what I need is a holiday
[Verse 2]
My sanity called, said I had identity fraud
Said, "I should cancel all my plans and I'll mail you a card."
Only, I don't know when I can get out of the city (Ay)
I got no fucks to give
You know I've been too fuckin' busy (Oh)
I want to roll up in the sand
Catch a wave and get a tan
Fall asleep, wake up, and do it all again
Pick my battle, now I need to fight it
Lost my zen and I need to
(Find it)
[Pre-Chorus]
(I, I, I)
Need to find it
(I, I, I)
On an island
I might get lost in the groove
Put on my grass skirt and hula
(I, I, I)
Like a Buddha
(I, I, I)
Hallelujah
All trouble gone with the breeze
Sing it with me, if you agree
[Bridge]
I need a holiday
I been goin' hard like there's somethin' wrong with me
Book a flight for Miami-Dade, yeah
I'll lay around by the beach naked, yeah
Sip on my favorite thing
Ooh, somebody come do a back massage for me (For me, for me, for me)
Ay, ay, ay, ay
[Chorus]
I need a holiday (Holiday-ay-ay)
I been goin' hard like there's somethin' wrong with me (Yeah)
Book a flight for Miami-Dade (Alright)
I'll lay around by the beach naked (Oh, naked)
Sip on my favorite thing (Ooh)
Ooh, somebody come do a back massage for me
Sunshine, water ripplin' (Woo)
It's what I need is a holiday
[Outro]
Need a holiday, need a holiday
I been goin' hard like there's something wrong with me
Give me one, give me one of them, baby
I need a holiday
I been goin' hard like there's somethin' wrong with me
