Orphan's Holiday

I come from nowhere

Belong to none

No gods and no family tree

I'm the itinerant son

The secret lust of a nun

The black spots on diciety

I'm lost as a babe

And stubborn as a man

So come and save me

Just see if you can

All the earthly desires

Apocalyptic empires-

I'm giving them all to you



With the sun in my face

I'm gonna leave this place

And give the whole town a big “fuck you”

I'm the lost boy son

Or so say everyone

That nobody gets high like you

So here's what I say-

An Orphan's Holiday

We're gonna celebrate

What you've thrown away

Cuz everybody's good at something baby

But nobody's good at me



The wealth of no man

Will pass into my hand

I'll inherit the earth when I die

No cultural myths

But those of the globe

And the song of a pauper's cry

No monuments to erect

No temples to uphold

Cuz family is chosen

Like my father told

And with the sun in The East

Going down on The West-

I'm watchin' it all unfold



Something's wrong with me

I can't seem to sleep

Something's wrong with me

I can't get happy

No one loves me

No one wants me

No one cares



All the angels that ride

With the cowboy's pariah

With god on our money-

He must take our side

We all fall to hell from earthly ungrace

So I'm giving it back to you



Everybody's good at something bebe

And I'm only good at you
