vox clamantis in deserto

TIWTDBHS

lyrics by harlan blynn

You sing like a baboon at the park
You make cats chase dogs and squirrels begin to bark
That ranger wears a scowl
Cuz I think you killed his owl
These are things I wish that Dan Bern had said


You strum like your hands are made of rocks
You look funny wearing Mr Tony’s socks
I think the hammer’s your tool
You’re a simple minded fool
These are things I wish that Dan Bern had said


Your writing leaves quite the void
You’re the prototype of being paranoid
If you’re the best there is
I gotta leave the biz
These are things I wish that Dan Bern had said


Oh, these are things I wish that Dan Bern had said
I gotta get that guy outta my head
We talked for a while
He said my songs made him smile
These are things I wish that Dan Bern had said
