No Time to Cry

June 26, 2008 5:05 PM

My first new song in quite a long time, recorded in as deliberately lo-fi and distorted a manner as possible, because that's what I like. I'm now 40, so it's time for me to start singing country. Therefore, I have written a murder ballad.

Lyrics:

NO TIME TO CRY

The dog it do bark
The crows they do fly
There's a forty-ought-six
And a bottle of rye
But there ain't no time
Ain't no time for you to cry
Ain't never no
Ain't never no time to cry

Clothes on the bed
Glass on the floor
Smoke in the air
And a hole in the door
But there ain't no time
Ain't no time for you to cry
Ain't never no
Ain't never no time to cry

Friday at noon
Bail it is set
Judge coming down
But he ain't here yet
But there ain't no time
Ain't no time for you to cry
Ain't never no
Ain't never no time to cry

It's an extremely flattering one.
