About the Artist
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 But it always turns out this way Here I am with my hand He took his sister from his head, and then painted her on the sheet And then he rolled her up in grass and trees, and they kissed 'til they were dead This ain't no holiday But 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, no, no! But it always turns out this way Here I am with my hand This ain't no holiday But it always turns out this way Here I am with my hand
