Holiday Home
Zoot Woman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Put all our cards away
Read the look on your face
All other games we play
Break the chain

'Cause it´s a holiday home
Two minutes too far away
What can you tell the other one
Dirty fiction can you call my name

Dancing girls on my mind
Patterns I´ve made before
Don´t want you here no more
Call my name

'Cause it´s a holiday home
Two minutes too far away
What can you tell the other one
Dirty fiction can you call my name

'Cause it´s a holiday home
Two minutes too far away
What can you tell the other one
Dirty fiction can´t give you away

Put all our cards away
Read the look on your face
All other games we play
Break the chain

'Cause it´s a holiday home
Two minutes too far away
What can you tell the other one
Dirty fiction can´t give you away

'Cause it´s a holiday home
Two minutes too far away
What can you tell the other one
Dirty fiction can you call my name

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Zoot Woman's song "Holiday Home" describe a relationship that has run its course. The first stanza sees the singer putting their cards away, ready to read the look on their partner's face. They then promise to break the chain of manipulation or power they have been engaged in. The chorus repeats the phrase "Holiday home, two minutes too far away," suggesting that physical distance is needed to mend the relationship. The line "Dirty fiction can you call my name" suggests the singer feels trapped in the story of the relationship and cannot break free.


The second stanza goes on to describe how the singer has "dancing girls on my mind" and is stuck in familiar patterns that they do not want to repeat. They do not want their partner around anymore, and again ask for them to "call my name" - perhaps indicating that remaining connected through a physical separation is necessary for them. The song again repeats the chorus and ends with the same overtones of frustration and confinement.


Overall, "Holiday Home" is about the difficulties of breaking free from a toxic relationship, the need for distance and a fresh start, and the sense of being trapped or constrained by the story of the relationship. The lyrics evoke a sense of resignation rather than anger or sadness, suggesting that even in a relationship's end, the singer feels stuck.

Our love was never meant to last
