B l u e a n d G r a y
When you're blue and gray, you know the master painter hasn't lost his way
because not everyday can be a Monet
When you're down and sinking into black
and someone drove their Chevy through your shining field of gold haystacks
well not everyday can be a Monet
So size me up and don't hold back a thing
I know these jeans have seen better days
and all my things are stained with wine and coffee rings
But I'll embrace the sting and the silence hatred brings
and thank God for the good and the bad
and know that when we're sad we'll add that to our list of ephemeral things life brings
When you're blue and grey, you know the master painter hasn't lost his way
because not everyday can be a Monet
And when you're blue and grey
the only explanation is that it has to be that way
because not everyday can be a Monet
No not everyday can be a Monet.
