Big Blue Note

See that big blue note Over there on the counter? You don't wanna read that thing, man It's a real get-you-downer But don't you dare say nothin' else Bad about her: She's gone No, no, no, no, don't, don't throw it away 'Cause tonight, I might need it It gets real lonely around here at night some times An' I have to read read it Besides, you can show it to the boys down town They won't believe that she's gone There used to be a time I was all she ever wanted All the man that she'll ever need I come home to find, just like that, she's up an' vanished An' the only thing she left behind for me: Is this big blue note Folded up in my pocket Yeah, don't laugh: it's been two months I still got it Sometimes I have to read the sucker twice Just to make sure I ain't forgot that she's gone You know, my psychiatrist said: "Tell me, what do you see "When you look at these inkspots "Of, er, reds, yellows an' greens?" You know, I looked at 'em all But they all looked to me like big blue notes There used to be a time I was all she ever wanted All the man that she'll ever need I come home to find, just like that, she's up an' vanished An' the only thing that's left to do for me Is stand high on this cliff Overlooking the sea With my big blue notepaper aeroplane That I just set free An' I'm gonna wait here a few more minutes An' if it don't come back to me You guessed it: She's gone Crash landing Bye bye, baby
