Dem Blues – Daniel Johnston – letras

Hello.We are about to begin a little excursion if you will.Down into the depthsPlunging downward, downInto what appears to be a bottomless pitSo now as we go, and going we mightInviting ourselves to see some sightsGood luck!Down, down we fallWhat will become of it all?And falling we fallAnd fall, fall, fallLooking cute like a storybook for you to look atSo now here we are and are here we isWalking like cows and mammals of show bizThe lifestyles of the bizarre and neuroticLook! Donuts and crackersAnd paper cups to drink juice out ofThis is the lifeYeah, but what about the strife?The pain and suffer-age and all that ruff-ageYou mean them blues?You know what I’m talking aboutWell I’ve had dem blues since I don’t know whenLooks like I’ve got dem blues againDem blues, dem bluesDem blues, dem bluesI really don’t know what I’m afterYou’re stepping on the crackersI’m really feeling kind of looseWould you like some juice?Dem blues will make me sadDem blues will make me madBut dem blues, dem blues is all I have ever really hadThat’s sadYou know fame means nothing to meFortune even lessYou ain’t no donutYou know I only wanted to be a loverInstead of a pestWhat was that test you failed?And When my eyes turn inward knowingI find myself beginning toSing dem blues, dem bluesDem blues, dem bluesDem damn bluesYou’ve made crumbs of a lot of crackersHey what’s that?Looks like some kind of squiggly thingWhy it’s the most fascinating thing to be just floating aroundWell don’t get carried away
