@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
So what exactly are you saying
You'd like to live your life between the sheets?
No destination
The hour's getting way past getting late.
To find the public opinion
You're talking big it comes to easily
I'm not prepared to entertain
You salivate when someone tells it straight.
You're young enough to always push your luck.
I keep my fingers crossed you keep em up.
Got a reason to get up this morning
Got inspired by the fear of being last
Don't deny your criminal past
Got a reason to get up this morning
Got inspired by the fear of being last
Don't deny your criminal past
Deny your criminal past.
So what exactly are ya,
So what exactly are ya saying
You'd like to live, your life
Talking cheap its no consolation
The hours getting way past getting late
And now its time to for-forget,
All the people there's too much to regret.
But now its carved in stone,
Just hang up the phone forever.
You've been arrested and you've
Been inspected but you
You're young enough to always push your luck
I keep my fingers crossed you keep em up
Got a reason to get up this morning
Got inspired by the fear of being last
Don't deny your criminal past
Got a reason to get up this morning
Got inspired by the fear of being last
Don't deny your criminal past
Deny your criminal, past.
Got a reason to get up this morning
Got inspired by the fear of being last
Don't deny your criminal past
A reason to get up this morning
Got inspired by the fear of being last
Don't deny your criminal past
Deny your criminal past
Yeah your criminal past
Yeah your criminal past
Yeah your criminal past.
