Up every mornin' just to keep a job
I gotta fight my way through the husslin' mob
Sounds of the city poundin' in my brain
While another day goes down the drain
But it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time
And there's a five o'clock me inside my clothes
Thinkin' that the world looks fine, yeah
Holiday, yeah...
Tradin' my time for the pay I get
Livin' on money that I ain't made yet
Gotta keep goin', gotta make my way
While I live for the end of the day
'Cause it's a five o'clock world when the whistle blows
No one owns a piece of my time
And there's a long-haired girl who waits, I know
To ease my troubled mind, yeah
Holiday, yeah...
In the shelter of her arms everything's okay
She talks and the world goes slippin' away
And I know the reason I can still go on
When every other reason is gone
In my five o'clock world she waits for me
Nothin' else matters at all
'Cause everytime my baby smiles at me
I know that it's all worthwhile, yeah
Holiday, yeah... [x3]

Bowling for Soup è una band pop-punk proveniente da Wichita Falls, Texas, formatasi nel 1994. Il nome della band deriva dalla routine comica del 1978 di Steve Martin "Bowling for Shit", che suggerisce le tematiche spesso ironiche e divertenti dei loro testi. Il gruppo è composto da Jaret Reddick (voce, chitarra), Erik Chandler (basso, voce), Chris Burney (chitarra, voce) e Gary Wiseman (batteria, voce). Nel 1998 hanno pubblicato il loro album di debutto, *Rock On Honorable Ones!!*, con l'etichetta indipendente FFROE. Bowling for Soup ha raggiunto la popolarità internazionale negli anni 2000 con brani come "1985", "Girl All the Bad Guys Want" e "Almost". Il loro stile musicale è caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili, testi divertenti e un'energia contagiosa.
