When I went to bed the other night something terrible occurred to me:
What if I awoke and found myself in an alternate reality?
Among the people waiting for the train
Standing there dejected in the rain
Dreaming up an island far away - beginningless vacation
In another life and time it seemed that everything was beautiful
Now I'm in a jacket and a tie and I'm sitting in a cubicle
But I'm working up a master plan
Oh, my wife and kids won't hold me back
Something's gotta give before I crack - beginningless vacation
Oh, when I finally get through this pile of debt
I will be free to make my way
I'll move to London or learn to fly a jet
Then I can finally fly away
One of these days I'm going to leave and I'll never go to work again
It'll be the last they see of me - I'll be following my heart instead
But it's always much more fun to dream
Than to run off doing crazy things
If it means I'm risking poverty - beginningless vacation
At least I have the weekends all to me
Holidays and summer hours free
I can always dream about my sweet beginningless vacation
Beginningless vacation [x2]
The lyrics BEGINNINGLESS VACATION of SCREECHING WEASEL is also present in the album First world manifesto (2011)
Gli Screeching Weasel sono una band punk rock originaria di Chicago, Illinois, formatasi nel 1986. Considerati uno dei gruppi più influenti del movimento pop-punk degli anni '90, hanno pubblicato un'ampia discografia caratterizzata da melodie orecchiabili e testi ironici e spesso autocritici. Il loro sound è una miscela di punk rock classico, power pop e melodic hardcore, con influenze provenienti da band come The Ramones, Buzzcocks e Green Day. Il gruppo ha attraversato diverse formazioni nel corso degli anni, ma il frontman Ben Weasel (Ben DeLape) è sempre rimasto la figura centrale. Tra i loro album più noti figurano "My Brain Hurts" (1993), "All the Songs About You" (1995) e "How to Make a Punk Rock Record" (2001). Screeching Weasel hanno contribuito a definire il sound del pop-punk moderno, influenzando numerose band successive. Alcuni dei loro brani più rappresentativi includono "Teenage Wasteland", "She's My Girl" e "The Ballad of Ben Weasel".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
