Dugg's Lament (My Attitude)


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
This guy not only stole more money from me than anyone else, he took away a lot of my good years. So, I wrote a song. It's my answer to an angry world. Write a song. Don't hop in a taxi with your buddies and go off to fight WWI. Stay home and write a song. 2009 would look a lot different if the folks in 1911 were a lot smarter. Or more musical. This is part of my suite: "The Dark Hearts and Magic Sandals of Santa Barbara."

Dugg's Lament
My Attitude)

I'm a guy with a poor excuse for what he's done
I'm unreliable and mean
Here's a guy, you take his whole life
You add up everything that he's done
It won't amount to a hill of beans

All I've got is all I need
It's not much, indeed
It's just my attitude
My attitude (etc)

Give me a buck and I'll pitch it away
As if it grew on a tree
Lend me your heart and I'll turn it to stone, right to stone
It's so hard to love me

All I got...

Tout de suite I'll die
And there won't be no one cryin'
That's alright
It's been a long fortnight and I've been tryin'
Goodnight
You got the tune, I got the time
St. Peter take me away
I'll throw in a bottle of booze and a handful of pills
I got nothing to lose, want nothing but thrills

No, wait, here's what I'll do
I'll put sand in my eyes and pretend that I'm crying
Cause that'll look like the blues
Then I'll take all of the years that I stumbled and fell
And I'll remember them wrongly
In my mind I'll be handsome and honest
And truthful and strongly

Cause all I got is all I need
It's not much, indeed
It's just my attitude
My attitude (etc)
