Holiday Lyrics

Holiday Celebrate
Holiday Celebrate

Chorus:

If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate
Just one day out of life
It would be, it would be so nice

Everybody spread the word
We're gonna have a celebration
All across the world
In every nation
It's time for the good times
Forget about the bad times, oh yeah
One day to come together
To release the pressure
We need a holiday

(chorus)

You can turn this world around
And bring back all of those happy days
Put your troubles down
It's time to celebrate
Let love shine
And we will find
A way to come together
And make things better
We need a holiday

(chorus)

Holiday Celebrate
Holiday Celebrate

(chorus)

Holiday Celebrate
Holiday Celebrate

Holiday, Celebration
Come together in every nation

LOL,@ the previous comments. I'm going to go out a limb and suggest that the song may well be about a taking a "holiday" of some kind.

I remember the first time I saw Madonna was with this song, and I thought she looked amazing! She is still very beautiful!

In life as in Art and Rock-For Madonna, Holiday does not mean vacation! Madonna does not do that! The song means let's make our lives better in the names of love and peace! In live staple Holiday, Madonna Cries the song as a call to action! She is a lifer, that Madonna!

It's worth noting when this song was released - the fall of 1983, a very, very tense and worrisome time worldwide (we now know that World War III almost started by accident). It's no accident, I think, that the lyrics call for the titular holiday to take place "all across the world, in every nation" and plead "You can turn the world around/Just bring back all those happy days" and "Let love shine/And we will find/A way to come together, we can make things better". Not to mention that it's a terrific dance track.
