Olympic Airways Lyrics

Suns up, we wait,
All day

Suns up, we wait,
All day
All day, the hell outside's kept away

If only we could move away, from here,
This is how we build a place, an aviary for today,
An aviary for today

Let´s disappear till tomorrow,
Let´s disappear till tomorrow

Dis-a-ppe-ar!
Dis-a-ppe-ar!
Dis-a-ppe-ar! ar! ar! ar!

Blow up these plain parades let´s go,
To an aviary far from home,
To an aviary far from home

A one hand clap is me and you
And you
And you
And you

While the hell outside´s kept away,
If only we´d moved away

Dis-a-ppe-ar!
Dis-a-ppe-ar!

(Rock out part then build up)

Last vacation was the same
We could move away

Sun down now we have built our place,
An aviary, forever
An aviary, forever
Forever
Forever
Forever
Forever
Forever

Re-a-ppe-ar!
Re-a-ppe-ar!

...i mean...this song mighta been written on heathrow airport but im pretty sure its about getting away from where you are...leaving this damn ole society behind and build a new home somewhere out there, where we might live in peace. yer..find a new place to live and people who understand your thoughts and all your confusing words...dontcha think so?

My Interpretation

I agree with you !

when I first heard it, it just reminded me of smoking as a means to get away.

Cover art for Olympic Airways lyrics by Foals

it's about being stuck at heathrow airport

Cover art for Olympic Airways lyrics by Foals

i think it's about being stuck on Greece when and your flying with Olympic Airlines... :P makes sense since the lead-singer is Greek..! and that airline company has got a lot of delays usually...

its all about escapism and wanting to get away...thought that was quite obvious

yes it is but that doesn't mean that the song coulbn't have been inspired by a delay in a greek airport or somewhere else waiting for olympic airways as the titled suggests also

This is a vampire song if i ever heard one

They openly admit, and it's known by most, that it is about being delayed at Heathrow
