Blue's Requiem

from Blue's Requiem · The Musical

[Verse 1]

As much as I would love to get comfortable
I know it’s not my time to be
Another graveyard poet whistling in the rain
Like a raven on a power line with a broken wing

[Verse 2]

Remember when you thought I was the crazy one?
Well I’m afraid that nothing’s changed
You’re still a glass home wrecker shooting off your mouth
Like a sentimental firecracker going up in flames

[Chorus]

Change, sometimes you gotta show that you can change
Just to show them you can play the game
But I’m just trying to make it through the day

[Verse 3]

I’m sorry if I sound a little bitter, baby
I realize that it’s no one’s fault
We’re just costumed mammals who know they’re gonna die
And it’s fucking up the party, death always kills the vibe

[Chorus]

Change, sometimes you gotta show that you can change
Just to show them you can play the game
But I’m just trying to make it through the day
I said change, sometimes you gotta show that you can change
Just to show them you can play the game
But I’m just trying to make it through the day

[Bridge]

God only knows where we’re going
But it’s only a matter of time
’Cause one thing we all know for sure
Is that nobody gets out alive
So take off your boots, kick up your feet
Oh, I’m taking your ass for a drive
We’re going down to the border to the old Drawn & Quartered
Where the ladies drink free Thursday through Sunday night

[Verse 4]

Now here in our little corner of the universe
This unforgiving nebula
I recommend
The early bird special, it’s a TWO FOR ONE
On the duck fat French fries
Yeah we can pair that with a wine

[Chorus]

Change, sometimes you gotta show that you can change
Just to show them you can play the game
But I’m just trying to make it through the day
I said change, sometimes you gotta show that you can change
Just to show them you can play the game
But I’m just trying to make it through the day
