Everything is gonna pass (away); It's really just a pain in the ass (today)... Fred Clark plays some bluesy guitar on this one.

Story behind the song
I wrote this song 2 days ago & recorded it yesterday; I sent it to Fred that night, and this morning he'd sent it back with the lead.
This isn't even a folk song...
Lyrics
The blues is just a good guy feeling bad
The blues is just a good guy feeling bad
The world's enough to drive you mad
So many dead I feel so sad
The blues is just a good guy feeling bad
Suicide's a permanent fix for a temporary problem
Suicide's a permanent fix for a temporary problem
Call us actors in a cage
Dress us up and set the stage
Suicide's a permanent fix for a temporary problem
I'm gonna get outta my head today
I'm gonna get outta my head today
Couldn't find the recipe
Where the drugs and the drink would set me free
I'm gonna get outta my head today
My emotions are attacking me
My emotions are attacking me
If I live another day right
I won't have to be awake all night
My emotions are attacking me
I'm not gonna always feel this way
I'm not gonna always feel this way
Everything is gonna pass (away)
It's really just a pain in the ass (today)
I'm not gonna always feel this way
