Bad Case of SAD

There are plenty of concrete reasons to blame this on
Plus a little bit of free floating nebulous stuff that’s never gone
It’s been goin’ on 6 months of gray, cold and rain
For a California girl that’s too much for her sunny side up brain
Went to the doctor and for a hundred bucks
He said there’s nothing you can do you’re just out of luck

Chorus:
You (I) got a bad, bad, bad
Bad case of sad
You got a bad case of sad
A really really bad case

The sun was shining for a couple of hours today
I sat on the front porch step in a down coat shivering away

I need every bare branch to be covered in leaves

Even when it’s beautiful outside I don’t have the best disposition

10 Your Love is Gettin’ in the Way of Your Life
Patterson Barrett: Lap Steel and Wurlitzer Piano

You’re makin’ really bad decisions
Been burnin’ every bridge in sight
Now you’re droppin’ the ball
Losing it all
Mixing up your wrong from right
Your love is getting’ in the way-ay-ay of your life

You’re doin’ lots of second guessin’
Keep changin’ at the speed of light
Someone’s pullin’ your strings
Clippin' your wings
Nipped you with a nasty bite
Your love is getting’ in the way of your life

Somebody’s pumpin’
Blowin’ up your ego
They got you hook line and sinker
You swallowed it hole
Somebody really wants total control yeah yeah

You’re old enough you should know better
And strong enough to put up a fight
But you’re somebody new
Stupider too
Snugglin’ up with kryptonite
You’re gettin’ the goods today
But tomorrow there’s hell to pay
Your love is gettin’ in the way-ay-ay of your life
