Smash Mouth is an alternative rock band from San Jose, California that formed in 1994, the band comprises Steve Harwell (lead vocalist), Greg Camp (guitarist/songwriter), Paul De Lisle (bassist), and new drummer since early 2006, Jason Sutter (replacing Michael Urbano, who left due to creative differences). Their hit songs include "Walkin' on the Sun" (1997) and "All Star" (1999). Focused at times playing "neo-ska" music, the band has adopted retro styles spanning several decades of popular music, as well as performing covers of popular songs such as The Monkees' "I'm a Believer" and War's "Why Can't We Be Friends" as well as cult favorites such as ? and the Mysterians' "Can't Get Enough of You Baby" (though their version owes more to The Colourfield's interpretation; in fact, the band at first believed it was a Colourfield original). Smash Mouth's first album Fush Yu Mangcame out in June 1997. This album could be said to be "neo ska".

Holiday in My Head Lyrics

Smash Mouth

Do you believe everything that you read
Everything that you see on the set
You look around at your sleepy little town
And think that this is as good as it gets
Well what youre lookin at is heaven-sent
Chorus
Every day is a getaway when all of it goes unsaid
I got a holiday a paid holiday
I got a holiday in my head
And what you want, what you really need
Are two different things wouldnt you say
The line is thin between fun and sin
And were all clockin in for the day
And our only care is what to wear
Chorus
Every day is a getaway when all of it goes unsaid
I got a holiday a paid holiday
I got a holiday in my head
Bridge
I got a job but Ive got a problem
cause I eat too much and I cant afford to solve it
When Im savin up for that cruise to the caymans
And Im hittin the snooze so I can keep on dreamin
Instrumental
Im just tryin to realize
Im just dyin to open my eyes
Im just lookin for paradise in my living room
Chorus
Every day is a getaway when all of it goes unsaid
I got a holiday a paid holiday
I got a holiday in my head
Ive got a holiday a paid holiday
I got a holiday in my head
Ive got a holiday a paid holiday
Ive got a holiday in my head
