I was feeling down and broken hearted
Like there was very little left for me to lose
So I started to sing about the way it all started
A pyramid to all of my dues
I fell into a trance, and I started to dance
And imagine myself King Lear
Alone on the heath with trembling teeth
And nothing but fear to fear
Oh no no no no no no
"Cordelia, Cordelia, my darling daughter
Don't you recognize your old man?
I suffered for sure when I froze on the moor
So give me all the sympathy you can"
"Say, daddy," she said, "you're a long way from dead
You can walk, you can talk, you can bend
And if you think you've seen the worst of it
Then no one's told you about the end"
Oh no no no no no no
Well that scared me some, and I started to wonder
Just when things got out of control
You made a pact with the muse of the blues
And she called you, you're bluffin' that ace in the hole
"I guess I'll throw in my hand, well would you be happy then?"
Cried the resident voice from the skies
Well so is the man who sings the blues
No matter how much he cries
Oh no no no no no no
Down at the pier, a message appears
In a bottle floating in the brine
And it says, "If you think your story beats 'em all
Then buddy you ain't heard mine"
No no no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no no no no no no no no
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no
No no no no no no no no no no no no no no
