On the anvils of my mothers home I forged myself a steel backbone
When a magical man who claimed to be my father walked in on stilts
And said, "that's the trick about sin, its the doer that she does in,"
In his classic artificial humor, his charade of some good will

Then he ran off with those callow punks
Beautiful prep-school pricks
And harmless seminarian misfits
To study women, booze and lots of drugs
Our silly little oblivions
In Marriage of molecular accidents

He come through town every now and then, reeking of his sleepless sweat
Pale in his pantomime of some unholy agitation
He said "The blind, deaf and all the rejects, they ain't de  fined by their defects"
With an au devoir and he was off to tour the nation

Running off with those callow punks
Dutiful prep-school pricks
And harmless seminarian misfits
To study women, booze and lots of drugs
Our silly little oblivions
Marriage of molecular accidents

I got a knock upon the door one day
He said, you know that ain't here to stay
But there's something I wanted to tell you, son

"Take everything I say with a big pillar of salt
Be fasting of your fury kill scaffolding of song
So we may learn to say nothing as though we're saying it all
Forgive my transgressions for I am righting all my wrongs"

I said, "you took off with those callow punks
Beautiful prep-school pricks
And harmless seminarian misfits
To study women, booze and lots of drugs
Our silly little oblivions
Marriage of molecular accidents?

And did you once ever wonder if
Your son wanted to travel with
His father to a world beyond his reach
To study women, booze and all the drugs
And maybe hug his daddy once
And fall asleep to passing headlight beams?

My father rose his head and knew what he had to do
And my father rose his hand
And I rose mine too

We headed far and wide and east and west
The seven wonders and all the rest
Became our beds for many years to come
We studied God, stars, and open road
I only hope that my son back home
Ain't mad I don't return to where I'm from
