Laughin' Along

from Gettin' Things Done by Matt Kaye

/

lyrics

Paint the sky yellow
Paint the road beige
Paint my heart shallow
The color of flesh

Lord Byron is sittin'
Down by the bay
Don't pass him by
He might not be okay

His handkerchief’s dirty
With nothin' to do
If he cries a river
He's dangerous, too

I'm no male Augusta
I'm no Robin Hood
Why should I console him
He needs solitude

So paint the sky yellow
Paint the road dark
Paint my heart shallow
With a big dollar mark

Laughin’ along
All down the line
If that fucker drops dead
All his poems are mine
