todd snider - continuing saga of the classic lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
this is called: the continuing saga of the cl-ssic bummer, or, is this my free one-way ticket to cleveland?

[verse 1]
i guess it all started
the day my brand new car wouldn’t
so i took it to this dealer
they said it was a good’un
he told me four hundred bucks would fix it
but when i asked him ’bout the guarantee
he just smiled and he told me “slim, that ran out last week”

[chorus]
i’ve been taken again
i’ve been taken again
like singin’ the blues
if you snooze then you lose
you’ll be taken again

[verse 2]
we drove to this bar
outside of el dorado springs
gonna drink a case of fat tire
hear old vince herman sing
they had this antlered rabbit on the wall
spiked h-rns and ears a foot tall
barefoot kenny told me it was a colorado jackalope

[chorus]
i’ve been taken again
i’ve been taken again
like singin’ the blues
if you snooze then you lose
you’ll be taken again

[verse 3]
well later i took home
this old nymphomaniac
i couldn’t get her
in the sack
she told me something in my eyes
had made her realize
that she could never do that l-stful thing with me

[chorus]
i’ve been taken again
i’ve been taken again
like singin’ the blues
if you snooze then you lose
you’ll be taken again

[verse 4]
people buy the records
think we’re workin’ so hard
but we’ve been drinkin’ in the studio
since five o’clock
they’re hangin’ on every word
waitin’ on the very next verse
hopin’ things’ll get better from here
i’m thinkin’ they’re gonna get worse

[chorus]
you’ll be taken again
taken again
like singin’ the blues
if you snooze then you lose
you’ll be taken again

[outro]
thank god you don’t have to hear
the take after this
