Hi. i love this song. but i don't really understand the meaning of the lyrics. i get the feeling of the song which tells a lot. but can someone explain or suggest pls (i'm not english native):

He took his sister from his head

And then painted her on the sheets

And then rolled her up in grass and trees

And they kissed 'till they were dead

This ain't no holiday

But it always turns out this way

Here I am with my hand.

I can understand the words, but the meaning of the whole song pls!

@dipsilalaundco the song is essentially about masterbation but for my video the line "this aint no holiday and it always turns out this way" struck a chord with me as it seems to sum up the poor soldiers who are sent to foreign lands to struggle in the sand and mud at the whim of their political masters, sometimes for the most nefarious of reasons

@ yomanyouahippie like i already said i know the original meaning of the song i just felt the words "this aint no holiday but it always turns out this way sums up the mire that is Iraq especially if you are a soldier posted there.Try some imagination mr literal

I like that alot. Well done Bud. This video is as deep as the viewer needs it to be. Slick and cleverly done. Having good music always helps and pixies music is a great video lubricant when applied properly of course :)

@Andyattube at least thats what i make out of this song, most pixies songs are weird like this

@dipsilalaundco He took his sister from his head

And then painted her on the sheets

And then rolled her up in grass and trees

And they kissed 'till they were dead

meaning he fantasized about his sister, he visualized her on the sheets as if they were in a valley somewhere kissing until his guilt killed this fantasy. "This aint no holiday, but it always turns out this way" I suppose he means that his lust for his sister isn't something to be happy about, but he can't help it and here he is.
