mike viola - brian myers you're no cherry garcia lyrics

the first scale i’ve ever learned was from brian myers
he lived in summer gardens in stoughton
it was the first scale he ever showed me
it’s the first scale i ever learned

he said, “do you know what plagiary is?”
i said, “no, it sounds like a very big word.”
he said, “and do you know what plagiary is?”
i said, “no.”
he said, “you sound like the grateful dead.”
but he looked like jerry garcia
just like jerry garcia
well before there was cherry garcia

this must’ve been 1970+something
when he showed me this scale
i was a little lad
i was skinny and pale
in the suburbs, 20 minutes from boston, massachusetts
mm+mm
wbcn and waaf and hjy
oh, why oh why did you break my little heart that way
brian myers
oh, why did you build me with shame, ooh
brian myers
one day i was looking through some photographs
and i found a picture of my band
and we were playing in my back yard
guess who was there?
brian myers with his hand on his chin
he was judging me
he was judging me and waiting for the scale to begin, oh
brian myers with his hand on his chin
why did you make me feel so lame?
here goes the scale

my friend theo can sing and play
but i can’t do it that way
let me try again
here goes the scale

something like that
brian myers
i don’t know the name of that scale
maybe jerry garcia invented it
but everything invented is for sale, oh
brian myers, look at you
cherry garcia
