From the Extended Edition of Gratuitous Sax & Senseless Violins, featuring Christi Haydon on vocals.
There is no official source for the lyrics, so this is the best I can figure out.
 
[Intro]
Am Dm Bb Dm
 
[Verse 1]
Dm
Oooh you're a holiday
Bb     Dm
Such a holiday
Dm
Ooh you're a holiday
Bb         Dm
Such a holiday
 
[Chorus 1]
     F                   C
It's something I think's worthwhile
       Dm               Am
If the puppet makes you smile
   Bb                       F
If not then you're throwing stones
         C                F
Throwing stones, throwing stones
 
[Verse 2]
Dm
Ooh it's a funny game
      Bb                         Dm
Don't believe that it's all the same
Dm
Can't think what I've just said
        Bb                Dm
Put the soft pillow on my bed
 
[Chorus 2]
F                    C
Millions of eyes can see
    Dm          Am
Yet why am I so blind?
         Bm              F
When the someone else is me
       C
It's unkind
       F
It's unkind
 
[Break 1]
Dm                            Bb         Dm

Dm                            Bb         Dm
Dee Dee DeeDee Dee Dee, DeeDeeDee DeeDee Dee Dee
 
[Chorus 3]
    F                   C
Yet millions of eyes can see
Dm              Am
Yet why am I so blind?
         Bb              F
When the someone else is me
       C
It's unkind
       F
It's unkind
 
[Break]
Dm     Bb
 
[Verse 3]
Dm
Ooh you're a holiday
     Bb             Dm
Everyday such a holiday
Dm
Now it's my turn to say
      Bb               Dm
and I say you're a holiday
 
[Chorus 4]
     F                   C
It's something I think's worthwhile
       Dm               Am
If the puppet makes you smile
   Bb                       F
If not then you're throwing stones
         C                F
Throwing stones, throwing stones
     F                   C
It's something I think's worthwhile
       Dm               Am
If the puppet makes you smile
   Bb                       F
If not then you're throwing stones
         C               F
Throwing stones, throwing stones
