haven't got the blues (yet)

Singer:loudon wainwright iii

i haven't got the blues yet

but i am somewhat depressed

i own several pairs of shoes

should i choose to get dressed

when i wake up in the morning

life can seem so unfair

although my woman hasn't left me yet

and there's a cleaning lady there

i'm knocking back the chardonnay

and popping zoloft too

i've got a lot of free time

i don't know what to do

i haven't got the blues yet

but i'm definitely down

i feel like emmett kelly

that mopey circus clown

i haven't got the blues yet

but i admit i'm in the dumps

everyone else is cheerful

i've got a bad case of the grumps

i'm holed up in my living room

i hardly get around

as for my composure

that's in the lost and founds

i went to see a doctor

actually a therapist

he said blame it on your parents
