Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip
Hip hip
When you're on a holiday
You can't find the words to say
All the things that come to you
And I want to feel it too
On an island in the sun
We'll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain
Hip hip
Hip hip
When you're on a golden sea
You don't need no memory
Just a place to call your own
As we drift into the zone
On an island in the sun
We'll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can't control my brain
We'll run away together
We'll spend some time forever
We'll never feel bad anymore

i'm going to go on a limb and say that i think this song could be a direct response to 'across the sea'.
ATS: "goddamn, this business is really lame I gotta live on an island to find the juice "
hence IITS
in ATS, rivers is completely depressed by a girl that he cannot be with because of the distance and goes insane and dreams of a better time. in IITS, he happily responds "we'll run away together, we'll spend some time forever, we'll never feel bad anymore"
"When you're on a golden sea You don't need no memory" is probably another response to not looking back to the bleak past and enjoying the present time together.
could be a slight over-analyzation but rivers is way too much of a twisted genius to write songs so straight forward on green. in fact, i wouldn't rule out that every song on green could be responding to songs on 'pinkerton'...very possible.
anyone else think of this?
