Big Ol’ House Lyrics by Orville Peck

Headed out to another show
Never watch bands anymore
Drink all night and start a fight
Take someone home that I don’t know
I live alone, honey
Big ol’ house and it’s full of ghosts I used to know
Sit awake darling, watch the sun rising
Finish myself off, final blow

Ooh, sweet nothing
Ooh, ooh, there’s gotta be something

Spend my time just locked inside
Hints of life not here no more
Echoed notes of songs I wrote
No one left to play ’em for
So let me go, honey
Big ol’ house can’t hold me here forever more
Soft goodbyes, darling, ain’t no use trying
One last look before you go

Ooh, sweet nothing
Ooh, ooh, there’s gotta be something
