The One Man Band Broke Up |
The one man band broke up |
The one man band broke up |
Due to creative differences |
The one man band broke up |
And everybody mourned the passing by passing along |
Oh fuck a simple requiem |
For the moments in the dusty record bins once lived in by kings |
Now graveyards for great stars that will never reign again |
These deserts full of fractured limbs and scattered instruments that can still |
sing like kids |
Are rotting into nothingness and the abyss is dim |
I remember when you kept time with the bass drum pedal |
While your left foot played organ melodies… |
A harmonica… |
A banjo… |
When you put an old hat out for the crowd passersby wearing suits and ties |
tried to hide |
But they couldn’t possibly deny your banshee cries |
Five decades in a wishing well |
Only waiting for someone to toss a pail |
Or a life vest |
Or some type of help |
But your body failed |
And your mind failed |
And your career fell into oblivion with the rest of your peers |
Loving what you did only got you so far through these years |
The moral of the story is |
No one really gives a shit |
But don’t cry for the swatted flies |
They loved what they did |
The moral of the story is |
No one really gives a shit |
But don’t cry for the swatted flies |
They loved what they did |
