Lyrics:

Well, sit right down, my wicked son

And let me tell you a story

About the boy who fell from glory

And how he was a wicked son

This ain't no holiday

It always turns out this way

Here I am with my hand

Well, he took his sister from his head

And painted her on the sheets

And they rolled her up in grass and trees

And they kissed until they were dead

This ain't no holiday

It always turns out this way

Here I am with my hand

Well, sit right down, my evil son

And let me tell you a story

About the boy who fell from glory

And how he was a wicked son

This ain't no holiday right now

It always turns out this way

Here I am with my hand

This ain't no holiday

It always turns out this way

Here I am with my hand
