Haven't Got the Blues (Yet) |
I haven’t got the blues yet |
But I am somewhat depressed |
I own several pairs of shoes |
Should I choose to get dressed |
When I wake up in the morning |
Life can seem so unfair |
Although my woman hasn’t left me yet |
And there’s a cleaning lady there |
I’m knocking back the chardonnay |
And popping Zoloft too |
I’ve got a lot of free time |
I don’t know what to do |
I haven’t got the blues yet |
But I’m definitely down |
I feel like Emmett Kelly |
That mopey circus clown |
I haven’t got the blues yet |
But I admit I’m in the dumps |
Everyone else is cheerful |
I’ve got a bad case of the grumps |
I’m holed up in my living room |
I hardly get around |
As for my composure |
That’s in the lost and founds |
I went to see a doctor |
Actually a therapist |
He said «Blame it on your parents, son |
They made you feel like this» |
I kinda sorta loathe myself |
Let me count the ways |
I haven’t got the blues yet |
But I’m experiencing malaise |
I haven’t got the blues yet |
But I guess it won’t be long |
'Cause I’m feeling kinda blueish |
That’s why I wrote this song |
My life isn’t tragic |
But it’s still a doggone shame |
That I’m not the man I used to be |
Though we’re genetically the same |
I like to wallow in it when I take a dive or dip |
I suppose if I was English |
I’d have a stiffer upper lip |
I haven’t got the blues yet |
I’m just a little low |
But when I really get 'em |
You’ll be the first to know |
I’m just a leaky supertanker |
With a lot of oil to spill |
I sure am feeling sorry for myself |
But if I don’t, who will? |
