lyrics

BLUES FOR ANNTETA
(Lyrics by Patrick Porter C. 2007)

I caught a plateful of hail today
I ran off in the rainstorm
I'm gonna get mine, sure
For punching a full moon in the face
I made a blade out of her
And raised a gale to slit my sails
I found someone who might know
Who I am-- I certainly don't

I'm gonna sit here at home
I'm gonna set it aflame
I'm gonna set it on fire
And wait for someone to save me
Sit here at home
I'm gonna set it aflame
I'm gonna set it on fire

Well I pooled all my lovers
And banded them in grocery sacks
What a sad laugh when
I handed them to the garbage man
Now I'm on my own
I sleep on a couch with two pillows
I set them head-to-head
And pretend they're my friend
(Ha ha ha)

I'm gonna sit here at home
I'm gonna set it aflame
I'm gonna set it on fire
And wait for someone to save me
Sit here at home
I'm gonna set it aflame
I'm gonna set it on fire
