Ceschi - The One Man Band Broke Up lyrics

[Hook] The one man band broke up The one man band broke up Due to creative differences The one man band broke up And everybody mourned the pa**ing by pa**ing along Oh f** a simple requiem For the moments in the dusty record bins once lived in by kings Now graveyards for great stars that will never reign again These deserts full of fractured limbs and scattered instruments that can still sing like kids Are rotting into nothingness and the abyss in dim I remember when you kept time with the ba** drum pedal While your left foot played organ melodies... A harmonica... A banjo... When you put an old hat out for the crowd pa**ersby wearing suits and ties tried to hide But they couldn't possibly deny your banshee cries Five decades in a wishing well Only waiting for someone to toss a pail Or a life vest Or some type of help But your body failed And your mind failed And your career fell into oblivion with the rest of your peers Loving what you did only got you so far through these years The moral of the story is No one really gives a sh** But don't cry for the swatted flies They loved what they did The moral of the story is No one really gives a sh** But don't cry for the swatted flies They loved what they did [Hook]
