Social Orphan - Lyrics - Saga

Sagas are stories about ancient Scandinavian and Germanic history, about early Viking voyages, the battles that took place during the voyages, about migration to Iceland and of feuds between Icelandic families. They were written in the Old Norse language, mainly in Iceland. "Saga" is a word originating from Old Norse or Icelandic language . Saga is a cognate of the English word say: its various meanings in Icelandic are approximately equivalent to "something said" or "a narrative in prose", somewhat along the lines of a "story", a "tale", or a "history".

Somewhere, someone's standing by The same game plan, the same aging fantasies. Spruces up the small talk and the smile. It's no wonder, he's under The pressure of pride once again. [Chorus] (He) calls himself a social orphan Caught up in the game. (He) sees himself a social orphan Caught up in the thrill of the chase. A number, a matchbook, the night before (But) no last names, and no long term promises. Finds it quite an effort not to smile. It's no wonder, He understands the need to try it again. [Repeat Chorus] Somewhere, someone hit square one. The same contacts, the same tired old double talk. Dreams about a weekend and a smile. It's no wonder, He's under the pressure of time once again. [Repeat Chorus]
