Written in Alaska; photograph in Ireland. Seriously. No shit!

lyrics

I'm a fucking Christmas miracle.
A festival of lights.
I'm a god damn celebration.
on a frozen winter's night.

Chorus:
Everyone is old and disappointing.
Everyone's conservative and boring.
Everyone's waiting on the Rapture,
I hope they packed a lunch.

I'm a god damned prayer meeting
in the middle of an August night.
Stars are falling like the Second Coming,
I'm baptized in the Northern Lights.

Chorus

After all these years,
is this the best that you can do?
You go to church and pray
a fairy tale will smile on you.
All you need to know is '42.'

I'm a garden full of fireflies
on mid-summer's night.
There may be fairies and flying saucers,
but there's no Jesus in sight.

Chorus

All you need to know is '42.'
