maddie pizzarelli - me & my girls lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
charlie was a singer
and a rock’n’roll fan
in the age of aquarius
couldn’t bear to die
an unremarkable man
a desire so precarious

charlie had a single
and a master plan
he could clean up like
those boys in the band
sell some songs
run away from the land
spend the war with
his head in the sand

[pre+chorus]
but they didn’t get what he meant
when he played it
they didn’t get what he meant
they didn’t see what it meant
that he made it
they didn’t see what he’d spent

and maybe if they’d lied
then those 5 souls would be alive
[verse 2]
charlie had a record
in a couple of ways
too fringe for establishment
everybody told him
it was just a phase
but he never grew out of it

charlie was a prophet
screaming from his van
“i am jesus, son of man
ride to the desert
the end of the land
with me and my girls
me and my friends”

[pre+chorus]
but they didn’t get what he meant
when they made it
they didn’t see what he meant
they didn’t get what it meant
that he’d saved them
they didn’t see what he meant

they didn’t know what it meant
when they made it
they didn’t know where they went
[bridge]
they were young and wild+eyed
the victims of a man denied
retiring in their prime
they take the anarchy in stride

bound to be delighted
by the unexamined time
bound to be a target of
the whims of man deprived

[verse 3]
charlie thought he’d make it big one day
but the mark is an ugly end
charlie left us with a song to play
out in the desert they hear him say

[chorus]
“there’s a hole in the world
like a great black pit
and me and my girls
gonna live in it
just right in the sand
where the whole world ends
me and my girls
me and my friends”
a hole in the world
like a great black pit
and me and my girls
gonna live in it
just right in the sand
where the whole world ends
me and my girls
me and my friends

a hole in the world
like a great black pit
and me and my girls
gonna live in it
just right in the sand
where the whole world ends
me and my girls
me and my friends

[pre+chorus]
just the ravings of a man denied
the cravings of a man deprived
the gumption of a man who
thinks it’s slipping through his hands
it’s the destruction
of a man who wasn’t
man enough to make it
“it’s just me and my guitar
out on my land until they take me”

[bridge]
i would slug you if i could
you don’t believe me
but i would
tried to see your side of it
but i don’t think i should

bound to be invited to
traverse the great divide
bound to be delighted by
the fate of man denied

[chorus]
there’s a hole in the world
like a great black pit
and me and my girls
gonna live in it
just right in the sand
where the whole world ends
me and my girls
me and my friends
