Isolation Blues
I’ve got the isolation blues
From my head to my shoes!
No matter what I try
I know I’m bound to lose!
That’s the isolation blues!
That’s the isolation blues!
Well I got up this morning.
Dragged myself out of bed
I had this heavy feeling
Like my feet were made of lead.
I tried to get in gear,
Tore a brush through my hair.
Looked in the mirror,
All I could do was stare.
I’ve got the isolation blues
From my head to my shoes!
No matter what I try
I know I’m bound to lose!
That’s the isolation blues!
That’s the isolation blues!
I headed down the stairs,
Tried to write my book.
Staring at the page
All I could do was look.
No words came to mind
No ideas in my head
I struggled for an hour
Then went back to bed.
I’ve got the isolation blues
From my head to my shoes!
No matter what I try
I know I’m bound to lose!
That’s the isolation blues!
That’s the isolation blues!
I went for a walk
Using nature as a cure
Failed to raise my spirits
Was all I could endure.
I picked up a book
And tried my best to read
The page started wobbling
My brain began to bleed!
I’ve got the isolation blues
From my head to my shoes!
No matter what I try
I know I’m bound to lose!
That’s the isolation blues!
That’s the isolation blues!
I hope that tomorrow
I’ll feel better again.
I’m feeling so fed up
I can’t stand the pain!
I wanna catch a gig!
I wanna see my friends!
No amount of chocolate
Is gonna make amends!
I’ve got the isolation blues
From my head to my shoes!
No matter what I try
I know I’m bound to lose!
That’s the isolation blues!
That’s the isolation blues!
