about

The Blues - why do they make us happy? Is it because we think we'll never be as sad as all that?

So I tried to do the saddest song I could - in sort of a NOLA style - see if it sets you into a fit of depression so huge, you feel like you're at the bottom of the ocean.

Or - maybe it will cheer you up...

lyrics

Sad, Sad, Song

I’m sitting here watching – the falling rain
Run like tears, down the dirty window pane
My heart is broken – that, all the world can see
You’ve left me now - & everything is misery

Groans & sobbing – dark & dismal days
Are all I feel now - & nothing anybody says
Can comfort me; & all my friends are gone
The only thing for me is total sadness, & to be left alone

It’s a sad song – it’s a sad, sad, song
It’s a sad song – it’s a sad, sad, song

Grey & bleak is the sky & ses
Nothing & no one would ever care for me
Life is not worth living when everything’s gone away
You’re gone forever - & there’s nothing I can say

I could swim out in the waves, ‘til I was lost
You were the best love I’ve ever come acrost
I still can’t believe how much you lied
The petunias have all wilted, & my last goldfish died

Chorus, & out
