  2. Lyrics "Holiday"Say, hey!Hear the sound of the falling rainComing down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!)The shameThe ones who died without a name NEXT

  3. Lyrics Continued Hear the dogs howling out of keyTo a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (Hey!)And bleed, the company lost the war todayI beg to dream and differ from the hollow liesThis is the dawning of the rest of our livesOn holidayHear the drum pounding out of timeAnother protester has crossed the line (Hey!)To find, the money's on the other side NEXT

  4. Lyrics Cont. Can I get another Amen? (Amen!)There's a flag wrapped around a score of men (Hey!)A gag, a plastic bag on a monumentI beg to dream and differ from the hollow liesThis is the dawning of the rest of our livesOn holiday(Hey!)(Say, hey!) NEXT

  5. Lyrics Cont. (3,4) "The representative from California has the floor“ SiegHeilto the president GasmanBombs away is your punishmentPulverize the Eiffel towersWho criticize your governmentBang bang goes the broken glass andKill all the…that don't agree NEXT

  6. Rain coming down like an Armageddon flame (simile) • A simile is a comparison using like or as • Armageddon is the final battle fought between good and evil • So it means the rain is coming down like bullets; very, very hard BACK

  7. Bang bang (Onomatopoeia) • Onomatopoeia is using words to describe sounds • Bang bang refers to gun shots BACK

  8. Armageddon flame (foreshadowing) • The Armageddon flame is the last battle before the end of the world • So the composer might think the war is going to lead to the end of the world BACK

  9. “The representative from California has the floor" (Caesura ) • It starts with a pause and then opens into a sort of poem • This is the phrase that introduces the caesura BACK

  10. SiegHeil to the president Gasman(free verse) • A free verse is a pause followed by something different then than what came before • This is the first phrase of the free verse BACK

  11. Biography • Holiday is about the American government and humanity during the Iraqi War. The song starts out saying how the thousands of deceased Iraqis and Americans are unknown to most American citizens. Meaning the majority of Americans don’t know what’s going on over in the war. It is also about the protesters finding out the pro-war was more powerful than they could ever get in their life. NEXT

  12. Biography Continued • There is also irony about a Christian’s feeling accepts the war: "Can I get another 'Amen'? There's a flag wrapped around the score of men." To go “On Holiday” is to go on vacation, like an escape, Boulevard Of Broken Dreams. BACK

  13. Lyrics Cont. • Trials by fire, setting fireIs not a way that's meant for meJust cause, just cause, because we're outlaws yeah!I beg to dream and differ from the hollow liesThis is the dawning of the rest of our livesI beg to dream and differ from the hollow liesThis is the dawning of the rest of our livesThis is our lives on holiday
