Every once in a while I write something that I'm really proud of. This is one of these times. I wrote this a couple of days ago while I was on Helium, the website, not the gas. It tickled me, so I wanted to share it with all of you. If I ever get around to learning how to play my harmonica, I'll even sing it for you. Please to enjoy.

The Morning Coffee Blues

Woke up this morning, groggy as hell
Four nights in a row, that I didn't sleep well
My head feels like it was in a title bout
I hit my alarm, but it was all snoozed out

I got the blues, you know this ain't no news
I got the blues, my heart is one big bruise
And the only thing I know is all I do is lose, I got the blues

Shuffled into the kitchen, my wife waiting for me
Started the yelling, I swear that woman is half Banshee
Said if I don't get a job today
She'll take the kids, with no delay

I got the blues, you know this ain't no news
I got the blues, my heart is one big bruise
And the only thing I know is all I do is lose I got the blues

To start my day I needed to wake myself up
Went to the sink and got my trusty coffee cup
But the pot was empty, just my luck
Shook my head, and said, "guess I'm...screwed"

I got the blues, you know this ain't no news
I got the blues, my heart is one big bruise
And the only thing I know is all I do is lose, I got the blues.
