Old misfortune Adorned in dirty sweats Sits statuesque Eats a meal at the appeal Of a shelter's steps Rises slowly knowing wholly That a plate of cold chow mein Isn't quite the sugar cane A girl expected In the market We're a thousand aisles away To find the deal Sorely stuck in line For the fine print to reveal Just exactly what we owe Before we're free to take What we need No we don't need a receipt Greetings from Little Saigon Where we've never seen the dawn Where Saigons will be Saigons Greetings from Little Saigon Where nightmares come And nightmares go But dreams may last forever So put your empty hand in mine Let's deaf drunk stumble Down the storyline Take the stage and play it proud It's only church if it's fuckin loud Aye If you get lost on your way home Greetings from little saigon Busted English Broken English from the gullets of the drunks By the gutters where the ships they sailed have now sunk It's a deathly sort of living For these lights that hang too low Where's the hope If you hide what you know Now settle up It's last call at the Blue Moon Bleed to the park And in the dark with all the marks That inform your heart You'll come crashing through a sadness That's been here since long before you Now is time for your new debut Greetings from Little Saigon Where we've never seen the dawn Where Saigons will be Saigons Greetings from Little Saigon Where nightmares come And nightmares go But dreams may last forever So put your stupid hand in mine Let's deaf drunk stumble Through the chorus line Take the stage and play it proud It's only church if it's fuckin loud Aye If you get lost on your way home Here's your home Greetings from Little Saigon
