lyrics

It feels like summer in the middle of November. I gotta get up, out, feel better. Here’s one for the records. But I’m so hungover, gotta drink that water down. I’m gonna walk all over town and stomp my blues into the ground. But I’ll never tell you what I did that day, it will always be a mystery, and the words I forgot to say could never fix this mess I’ve made. Feeling like a flapjack that’s bubbling in the center. Red rover, red rover, quick come flip me over. William, I think this is farewell. I’d say see “you ‘round”, but I think I’m going underground. It’s nice to hear you singing, but you know it hurts my feelings when you build me up just to let me down. Maybe some sunday you’ll bump into me at Kroger. Cart filled with canned goods, heart made out of wood, and you’ll say “Hey Mitch, won’t you come and see my band play?” and I’ll say “Would if I could, but I won’t be around.” No, I’ll be across town shining my shoes under the ground
