When I was younger I used to be wild    As wild as an elephant's child    No one could hold me down    No one could keep me around    Now it's your turn, take a shot    Baby show me everything that you got    Maybe you can keep me alive    Maybe you can get in my mind    But it's only a matter of time       Before I run far away    I need to take a holiday    Maybe it's a fall from grace    I gotta find a new place    A holiday    I'll set off on a new chase    I gotta see a new face    I need to take a holiday       My father, he was always wise    As wise as an elephant's eyes    He couldn't hold me down    He couldn't keep me around    So are you gonna take your shot?    It's the only one that you got    Maybe I'll go out on a limb    Maybe I'll jump in for a swim    When the lights go dim       You know I'll run far away    I need to take a holiday    Maybe it's a fall from grace    I gotta find a new place    A holiday    I'll set off on a new chase    I gotta see a new face    I need to take a holiday    (Need to take a holiday)       Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa       A new start    I've broken too many hearts    And I don't have any clue where to go    I don't know    But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday       When I was younger I used to be wild    As wild as an elephant's child    And I don't think I'll ever change    I think I'm gonna stay the same       I'll run far away    I need to take a holiday (need to take a holiday)    Maybe it's a fall from grace    I gotta find a new place    A holiday    I'll set off on a new chase (set off on a new chase)    I gotta see a new face    I need to take a holiday       A new start    I've broken too many hearts    And I don't have any clue where to go    I don't know    But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday       All of the wasted time    The hours that were left behind    The answers that we'll never find    They don't mean a thing tonight
