Oh look, it's here again
it's here to stay
in fact, it never got away
never, ever got away
I've got the blues, kiddo
I've got the blues right here and now
I've got the blues, oh shake me down,
I've got the blues all around.
Oh listen I've gotta say
the blues will never go away
no matter what you do
what you take
the blues are here
to stay
drop them pills, go to the doc
"doc, this ain't helping me at all"
"I know kiddo, and you haven't seen it all"
pills and pills, smoke and sound
won't drop it around
tell the truth, tell me now
tell me how
I got caught once again
"oh no son, we never went away"
Never went away
the blues is here to stay
Never, ever got away
the blues are yours, are mine
The blues are us
sitting in a bus
waiting to go home
to be all alone
It's all it's gonna be
dust, spiders, the dragon and me
dust, no money, no love, all mine
dust and smoke
paint the blues
around you
even sunshine won't keep it at bay
even sunshine will let it stay
even the meds that seemed to work
had failed and now it's back on full force
These are my blues,
these are my rules
stay cold, stay blue
stay shut, stay cool
I've got the blues baby, once again
I've the blues and it won't go away
I've got the blues cos I ain't got no you
is it that - or something else
that's been keeping the blues in here
in here
nothing ever lasts
only the blues, baby
the blues will never leave ya
It's me, damn right I know
It's me causing all of this
It's me who won't go
and let the blues go
Damn right, it's me
It's who I ever wanted to be
Damn right, it won't be,
so sing the blues tonight!
Alright!
I'm coloured blue
I'm the color blue
I'm the meaning of it all
Under the dust and spiders,
blue,
under the bushes under the stars
blue,
under the rooftoop of mine
blue,
I am coloured blue
By me...by you.
Honey, let the blues sing your day
In so many ways
Let it dictate your day
same shit, different days.
Same shit, always.
