Lyrics
Like An Old Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Laughing at me (he he he he he)
Those pictures you said were strange
Out of tune out of key
It's such a shame but you never quite see
You always put the blame on me
I'm like an old blues
That you never use
Going out of style
And it's not worthwhile anymore
Anymore
Looking at you (hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo)
And the way you shine like a sharp knife
Well I've found a new switchblade (switchblade)
Time I took a stab at a new life
There's nothing left for me to lose
I'm like an old blues
That you never use
Going out of style
And it's not worthwhile anymore
Anymore
You send your dirty words to me (your dirty words)
You're having a ball with the men of the law
But the poet and his pen are free (are free)
There's nothing you can do
That would ever bring me to my knees
Calling me names (you're such a fool)
You make me feel like I'm crazy
Something has changed (something has changed)
I don't care for you lately
There's nothing left for me to do
I'm just an old blues
That you never use
Going out of style
And it's not worthwhile anymore
Anymore
Not worthwhile anymore
