the granville blues
DESCRIPTION
A song I wrote in the style of the blues, which follows the familiar C, F, G progression. Written as a parody of the people who complain about life in a cushy college dorm.TRANSCRIPT
My life is so rough
My life is so real
You cant understand
How blue I feel
Im rich white and male
But it gets rougher still
Im a freshman student
on 3rd floor of granville
I got the Granville blues (C)
We could only fit one TV in the room.(F)
I got those Granville blues (G)
This is what povertys like I assume (Finish with C)
I went to buy beer
With my fake ID
The guy gave a sneer
Hey, you dont look 23 (C progression)
I went to La Res
Bouncer gave a look of doubt
Said: This shit is clearly fake
Now tip or get the hell out
Ive got them granville blues
I think I may emotionally scarred
This life I did not choose
My polo is soft but my life is so hard
Im pregamed in a coma
Wensday, 4PM
My greeks friends say I should drink more
And I totally trust them
Drunchies getting bad
Agoras looking fine
But I swear Ill kill myself
If the buffet has a line
Ive got granville blues so bad
This place is run by a boatload of schmucks
I am not amused
Daddy, Mommy, Why didnt you just put me in Lux?
Put me in Connor or Cory or Craige or in Alderman
Avery, Aycock, Teague, Taylor or Kenan
Or Ehaus or Hojo or Winston or Odum
Or Alex Carmichael, or Everett or Hardin
Or Graham, or in grimes of in Louis or Morrison
Cobb, Manly, Parker or Magnum or Horton
Mciver, or old east or stacey, or Mason
Or Ruffin, Rams Village, Craig North or in Old West
Or Parker, or Spencer whatever you see best
Im gonna drown it in booze
These granville blues
