lyrics

A shade of grey on a cloudy sky
The world of man to a forest pine
A drop of water in an endless sea
One of a million who’d rather not be

A little red paint in a river of blood
Four-lane highway to a flash flood
Cricket’s chirping over a whale song
One right choice in a pattern of wrong

An anthill under a stampede
Great advice when you don’t take heed
A few words of reverence for those who’ve earned it
Reflection on life for those who’ve spurned it

Abstract painting in a hotel room
One less bristle in your dustbroom
A speeding ticket when you’re on your way home
Everyday worries when you’re out on your own

Another paycheck to spend or save
Another flower on a very old grave
A hidden sadness if you don’t show it
A terminal disease if you don’t know it

An offer to stay when you’re leaving soon
A moonlight drive at twelve noon
One wrong note and you’re out of tune
Gun in mouth or needle and spoon

A burning secret you never confide
A paddle and land when you’re swept by the tide
A will and purpose when you’re along for the ride
Poetic justice for the other side

Abstract painting in a hotel room
One less bristle in your dustbroom
A speeding ticket when you’re on your way home
Everyday worries when you’re out on your own

Another paycheck to spend or save
Another flower on a very old grave
A hidden sadness if you don’t show it
A terminal disease if you don’t know it

An offer to stay when you’re leaving soon
A moonlight drive at twelve noon
One wrong note and you’re out of tune
Gun in mouth or needle and spoon

Daybloom Albany, New York

After preparing a massive arsenal of puns in preparation for a ten year tour of stand-up punning in pun-friendly venues worldwide, Daybloom packed a van and set out, only to get a flat tire in the driveway. Plans dashed and bored, they started playing music. ... more
