There will be NOLIDAYS. Again.

2021 should have seen new lyrics for the re-release of this

(written and self published in December 2020 in record time)

biting Holidays-with-Aunt-Corona-Song…

...but there hasn´t changed that much.
At least that´s what Feline Lang thinks, brain and voice of Berlin based Dark Cabaret punks „Feline and Strange“:

Still, the world is hapharzedly fighting the pandemic while worrying about money. Still, online shopping peaks, despite shortages. Still, those who are running society do not get appreciation.
But the consume machinery is derailing audibly in times of Brexit.
And #howcanartnotbepolitical, as the band keeps asking since 2016?
Feline´s British fans are waiting for this, in hope of their return for Raising Steam Festival in 2022! (Let´s hope the band will still get a visa after this release.)

So, let´s sing a carol, like in the good old times. Get the flutes out, tune the harpsichord, and make the choir drunk. All them feels please! Because what else is left of these Nolidays?
And what else did ever really matter?

lyrics

​NOLIDAYS

No regrets for the holidays -
There will be nolidays this year
They are nolidays, but you still can go shop
although your shopping day will be a smalliday
with no fee paid, halleluja!

Don´t save cookies for Santa Claus,
while the banter claws away your skin.
You can´t rent a Claus, but you still can eat
although Santa´s boot will kick your sorry butt
to Northpole and back again, hosianna!

Have a party without the party, just for you alone
Paint the family, Jack and Emily, with a Sharpie on the wall.
Let your hair down in the toilet after all the food
a whole tofu turkey for yourself was optimistic
but eating warms you up and that is good!

Here´s to a happy new year,
though we are too fearful to celebrate
But don't boo here, because you can still shoot rockets
just be a fool here despite your fear
of a hospital this year, gloooria!

Music shall be everywhere, Blast the walls away
Make your neighbour cry and bust the fuses,
Why should you tone it down today
Shop until the web is empty, let the customs eat your house,
But chimney post is postponed, no boxes will be unboxed,
No working visa yet for Santa Claus....

No regrets for the holidays
There are nolidays this year
They are nolidays, but you still can dream
Even nolidays can be jolly days
you can always feel a tiny bit of joy...
