about

A song for siestas and peaceful easy feelings, stocked with tongue-in-cheek lyrics and beachside vibes. Phil Solem, known for his work with power-pop hitmakers The Rembrandts, handles guitar duties.

lyrics

When my brain goes on vacation
I admit that the sensation
Isn’t all that bad
Erasing for a moment
The memories of a breakup
That’ll make me sad

And though I think the world of her
and even pinned a moon for her
It was never enough
To make her want to love me
Like she loves me
When my brain goes on vacation

Why does this happen?
I’ll never know
When does this happen?
It comes and goes
Grabs me like some sentimental song
And then she’s gone, gone, gone

Solo

When my brain goes on vacation
That feeling of elation’s
Like the 4th of July
For a spinnin’ like I wanna spin it
It’s my world with her in it
Kind of guy

It’s quite the contradiction
To focus on the fiction
That somehow it will be enough
To make her want to love me
Like she loves me
When my brain goes on vacation

Why does this happen?
I’ll never know
When does this happen?
It comes and goes
Grabs me like some sentimental song
And then she’s gone, gone, gone

When my brain goes on vacation
I admit that the sensation
Isn’t all that bad
