Lyrics
This song is especially influenced by America's "TIN MAN" 1974, and as with all my music, is a huge movie score.
SAD BIRTHDAY
It's a sad birthday-
Hardly even a worth day
An I'm home alone day-
An I'm all alone day
An I'm out-of-work day-
I feel like a jerk day
Guess I'll run away day-
It's another sad birthday
VERSE I
Feels like nobody understands-
This complex lonely man
Nobody even cares-
Whether I'm here
Or whether I'm there-
Or anywhere...(HOOK)
VERSE II
I've prayed and prayed someone would please-
Stop by and rescue me
But luck has never been one on my side-
Coz' nobody tried-
Oh, such is my life...(HOOK)
