I Love You
My granddad used to tell me, "Boy, when I was just your age, I was a river pilot on a showboat called The Stage.
I'd hobnob with them southern belles and ev'ry roustabout. I'd listen to them paddle wheels and hear the leadsman shout!
Chorus:
Mark Twain, it's two fathoms deep below. Mark Twain, heave the gang plank. Start the show.
Mark Twain, play those banjos as we go down the Mississippi, 'round the Gulf of Mexico.
There were gamblers, crooks and fakers and a minstrel man who'd dance. A singin' gal, Simone Lamour, imported straight from Fran
No Big Deal
Don't kiss it goodbye.
Don't even turn out the lights.
No need to make a big deal out of it.
I said no.
Don't tell me its fine.
Go ahead and leave me behind.
No need to make a big deal out of it.
I said,
Like a row of bones,
stitch me up and the flesh is sewn.
Now it feels like I can't sleep,
lying here on the busted sheet.
I just need a microfone,
turn it up cause the box is stone.
This is a place I call home,
all alone in my head.
I won't take it, if you break it, don't mistake it, I can't fake it, I depend on you.
Goodbye, cruel world.
No, don't kiss it goodbye.
Don't even turn out the lights.
No need to make a big deal out of it.
I said no.
Don't tell me inside.
Go ahead leave me behind.
I told you everything's fine;
don't make a deal out of it.
Like I always said,
close your mouth and you show respect.
You might push to make it fit,
if I dont keep ahead of all of that s#*t.
I don't want to make it bad.
If you can't come I won't be sad.
I do believe I might be dead,
all alone in my head.
I fall slowly, don't look for me, if you see me, don't inform me, I depend on you.
Goodbye, cruel world.
What a place, just to waste.
I can't fix, what I've done.
I can't trace, time and space.
Don't erase, what I've done.
I can hear it, don't you hear it, come and steer it, don't get near it, I depend on you.
No, don't kiss it goodbye.
Don't even turn out the lights.
No need to make a big deal out of it.
I said no.
Don't tell me inside.
Go ahead and leave me behind.
I told you everything's fine;
don't make a deal out of it.
No, don't kiss it goodbye.
Go ahead and leave me behind.
I told you everything's fine;
don't make a deal out of it.
