@[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.
[L.I.F.E. Long]
Into the war of the worlds, where cities twirl
L.I.F.E. Long shakin' planets for the ?
Conquering lands when I spit out and hurl words
It's a Stronghold writer's guild, Cannibal Ox take over your herd
We planted our flags on your soils
Despoiling opponents with turmoil
Only rap won't spit in the aluminum foil
We potent with rounds lit out similar
To triggers pulled on villages
I was there when it all first sparked
Jersey next to poisonous darts
Camouflaged with the dark, to blend in with the scenery
Snatch your whole team's referee machinery
Before knowin' I landmine spot blowing
Throwing heads off tracks, smackin' em with an open palm
BITCH SLAP
Make your whole body feel it when I spray
The battle's just begun, it gets deeper as the song plays
[Vordul Megala]
Mega with his arms folded
Fists balled up
Toast (?) on the side of my waist
V on the buckle of the belt
Rappin' hell (?)
Cape flowin'
Still standin'
With two cannons
1 3 2 got me vanished
Ninja in the night with the phantoms
Amped up, set off hoppers (?)
See rays blast from the optics
Livin' in fucked up ghetto economics
Spit from the voice box, nasty with sonics
Animals released out of boxes
Plus we got that stronghold on the throat
That'll leave you all gone on the float
Split belly cos you off the boat
[C-Rayz Walz]
The battle for Asgard and we fight as gods
Shatter your glass cage into a thousand crystal shards
I stayed in the basement, like the Krueger Kid
Shut the city down like ? Lubavich
Your stupid clique wrestle warlocks
The audience backed you
I drank eight ounces of water
With my time capsule
Wrote rhymes before all the times when mother nature's fabric
A hard rock, I descended from stone tablets
Juggle your bones and poems, about to see foes
Who couldn't bounce from spot to spot like weak toes
Allow me to surf on your brain waves with jet skis
Unless you want your wrists to part like the red sea
On the roof of hell, you got stomped by angel's feet
Cause you can't be down, you had gravity deficiency
(We spit thoughts!)
I translate harpoons to sharp death
When the point is made, from my underwater breath
Don't get walls confused with linoleum
And try to cut my square like a scared custodian (know me son!)
Every bite upon, I told you not to get it on
But you still trip the holes with a broken magic wand
Strong Atoms, whole family dear
To duplicate & recreate could take a light year
Squeeze your head into a sneaker, lace your face
Throw you in a black hole, make you swim through space
[Vast Aire]
We mind-bogglin', spine-tinglin'
Got the scroll of Galactus now I'm planet-swallowin'
Megilah's got the surfboard and he's hollerin'
All arch-enemies must die
And I know you not unbreakable son, that's a lie
And you can't have my 3.14, that's my pi... (stupid!)
I'm a diamond in the rough, and you're Lucy in the sky with a cubit
Your raps don't do it
I deal with cloud nigga patrol
Plus my real name is closer to Thor's than yours
Where we practice there is no flaw
This is the battle for Asgard (say no more)
Atoms fam & Stronghold, nuclear clamp the mic
And you and your best friend don't even sound tight
I guess something ain't right
We like constellations when they close in
The lost sons of Odin
With a mouthful of parables to get em open
But the psionic imagery'll leave em frozen
I used to outdo cats like you in my lunch period
Then conversate with the burning bush about a period
And bust through your ego like the high line (?) of scrimmage
Right for the goal, your warning comes in 2 minutes
Into the war of the worlds, where cities twirl
L.I.F.E. Long shakin' planets for the ?
Conquering lands when I spit out and hurl words
It's a Stronghold writer's guild, Cannibal Ox take over your herd
We planted our flags on your soils
Despoiling opponents with turmoil

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
