Wasted Time

When I woke up today my brain was sideways, I had to spill myself off the bed.
I was beautiful when I was dreaming there was nothing in my head.

I’m told that Emmett DeGuvera from Tempe's Tramps & Thieves does an authoritative cover of this one.

It’s been ages since I’ve seen the sunlight, I get the sense I might be turning green
Mid-November if I don't get better I'm jumping in the sea,
I'm gonna throw myself in the sea.

'cause I've wasted all my time on music and girls
and I’m longing for silence
I’m going home to burn everything i own in this world
and I’m gonna move to an island

I smashed my radio for spewing garbage—
damn thing never played me any Billy Bragg.
I drove the whole way home in utter silence,
and I felt so sad. I think that I’ve been had.

I would consider myself the world's biggest Billy Bragg fan if I had never been to the Billy Bragg forum, where the Bard’s real fans lurk.
