Benedict's Blues歌詞

WHAT TIME ARE YOU GETTING UP?
AND GETTING UP TO DO WHAT
THAT’S HALF OF THE GAME
SITTING IN A SAD HOTEL
COUNTING UP THE CHURCH BELLS
ISN’T THAT A SHAME?
FOUND THE MEANING - TIED THE KNOT
WROTE THE BOOK – AND LOST THE PLOT
COULDN’T FIND ANOTHER WAY
TO SAY THE SAME THING EVERY DAY
I’M CALLING ON SAINT BENEDICT
TO FIND THE WAY TO MAKE IT STICK
AND LOOKING FOR SOME DISCIPLINE
STAYING HUNGRY KEEPING THIN
WRITE A LOVE SONG HAVE A HIT
HE DID ME WRONG OH WHAT SHE DID
IT’S THE SAME OLD SAME OLD
IS THAT ALL A SONG CAN BE?
I THOUGHT A SONG COULD SET YOU FREE
BUT MAYBE I WAS WRONG
FIND THE MEANING - TIED THE KNOT
WRITE THE BOOK - LOSE THE PLOT
COULD YOU FIND ANOTHER WAY?
TO SAY THE SAME THING EVERY DAY
I’M CALLING ON SAINT BENEDICT
TO FIND THE WAY TO MAKE IT STICK
I’M LOOKING FOR SOME DISCIPLINE
I’M STAYING HUNGRY KEEPING THIN
THREE RIDERS COME FROM OUT OF TOWN
ONCE WAS FOUR BUT ONE OF THEM DROWNED
THEY ASKED WHAT’S NEW WHAT HAVE WE MISSED
OH JUST A LITTLE APOCALYPSE
OH TAKE THE STAIR TO HEAVEN’S GATE
THELONIOUS MONK ON THE EIGHTY EIGHTS
PICK OUT YOUR MANSION CHOOSE YOUR CHAIR
CHANGE THE COLOR OF YOUR HAIR
ONCE I HAD A CAT WHO SAT
ON WHITE PAPER AND THAT WAS THAT
NEVER WROTE A DAMN THING
BUT IF HE COULD I SUPPOSE HE MIGHT
TAKE PEN IN HIS PAW AND START TO WRITE
IN THE BEGINNING …
FIND THE MEANING - TIE THE KNOT
WRITE THE BOOK – AND LOSE THE PLOT
COULD YOU FIND ANOTHER WAY
TO SAY THE SAME THING EVERY DAY
CALLING ON SAINT BENEDICT
TO FIND THE WAY TO MAKE IT STICK
LOOKING FOR SOME DISCIPLINE
STAYING HUNGRY KEEPING THIN
KEEPING THIN …
