[Verse One] Time is not a one-way street Opportunity's not a window Traveling, it don't take your feet I'm sick and tired, let the wind blow Don't know what is all the rage I'm tired of Nietzche and Plato We're just not on the same page I don't really care what they know Just what I find about myself [Pre-Chorus] And I put them on the shelf and I pour myself a beer No philosophising going on here And I'm hanging low just like the ocean It's been so long I've been forgotten There's no philosophising going on here HEY! [Chorus] X2 It's time to get away Time for a holiday Put your books up on the shelf and Don't worry, don't worry anymore [Verse 2] Empty mind and empty breath Did you know what you were reading? Turn the page and I see you on The other side of the street you're walking down Never thought that you were bleeding [Pre-Chorus] And I put them on the shelf and I pour myself a beer No philosophising going on here And I'm hanging low just like the ocean It's been so long I've been forgotten There's no philosophising going on here HEY! [Chorus] X2 It's time to get away Time for a holiday Put your books up on the shelf and Don't worry, don't worry anymore [Bridge] Empty lines, and the moon's still on the street And the smell that's falling from your hair And it's gathering below my feet Light the moon, Light the moon Light the moon, Light the moon And you know that sultry tune is in the air And your s** is everywhere And the parents-gone The kids are whacked and the sh** is on the street We never knew what we were doing And we're out of gas, the house broke down and sh**! It's on the wrong side of the town We never knew what we were doing! [Chorus] X2 It's time to get away Time for a holiday Put your books up on the shelf and Don't worry, don't worry anymore
