Story Behind The Song

I saw the documentary Devil and Daniel Johnston and wrote a love song that I imagined Daniel may have written for his muse Laurie Allen.

Lyrics

Hi How Are You
music and lyrics by Inspector 13

hi how are you
please say you love me
and if you do
you don't have to love me
deeply or truly
just enough to fool me blindly

I'll be your sugar man
with a dower of diamond dogs
with rubies for their eyes
and all the rubies have fallen
out for your pleasure
come find your treasure
you'll never be without my love

I am number 9
you are number 7
when I lose my mind
you are my heaven
you are my heaven

I wrote a thousand songs
the words are all the same
every word is your name
so I know it can't be wrong
to tell you
my heart fell into
the river of my stupid tears

tiny crack in my head
can you see what I'm thinking
I think of what you said
I'm thinking that you love me
deeply and truly
you could never fool me
I'll never be without your love
