Mockingbird Blues

Mockingbird, mockingbird, sing in my tree
I won't get me no sleep for tonight
I got a bee in my bonnet, got a wolf in the pen
I'm letting the bed bugs bite
Racquetball, racquetball, racket in hand
I'm fixing to do him in
Gonna take his life, just don't tell my wife
She says it's a cardinal sin

I'm battling spiders, the ants are marching in
Out in the wilderness, baby, it's hard to find a friend
Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen
It's hard to find a friend
Amen, amen, amen, amen
It's hard to find a friend
It's hard to find a friend

Mockingbird, mockingbird, up in my tree
He tells me I'm falling behind
Here after the divorce, no Tesla, no Porsche
Just mockingbird shit on my van in the drive
Mockingbird, mockingbird, mocking away
Got every last dollar spent
No country club, no IRA, no boat by the bay
No mortgage, I'm still paying rent

I'm battling spiders, the ants are marching in
Out here in the wilderness, baby, it's hard to find a friend
Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen
It's hard to find a friend
Amen, amen, amen, amen
It's hard to find a friend
Oh, it's hard to find a friend
Yeah
(Hard to find a friend)

Mockingbird, mockingbird, horrible song
Make a nest in my window sill
Walk a mile in my shoes with these mockingbird blues
And you'll know it's time to kill

I'm battling spiders, the ants are marching in
Out here in the wilderness, baby, it's hard to find a friend
Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen
It's hard to find a friend
Amen, amen, amen, amen
It's hard to find a friend

Man, it's hard to find a friend
Yeah, oh
