SONG BIO: Having whined or complained too much for the taste of my grandpa, the old man would claim that my tongue was getting purple. It was not until the old man neared death that he revealed that my purple tongue was the result of singing so many blues.

lyrics

I bought my kid a bat, but it flew away,
I’ve had a 21 year long bad hair day,
The hooker in Hawaii wouldn’t give me a lei,
And my tongue is getting real purple.
My ice cream sandwich had a pronoun change:
No longer It’s It now they’re a they-they.
The slowest lane in traffic is the one that I choose.
My tongue’s getting purple from singing the blues.
My tongue is getting purple from-a singing all these blues.

There’s hair in my ears and none on my head,
She’s got nice buns but I don’t have the bread,
She tickles me pink but she left me on red,
And my tongue is getting real purple.
I have a bowel movement at seven each day;
The only problem is that I wake up at 8.
The pessimist challenge is another I’d lose.
My tongue’s getting purple from singing the blues.
My tongue is getting purple from-a singing all these blues.
