See that big blue note Over there on the counter? You don't wanna read that thing, man It's a real get-you-downer But don't you dare say nothin' else Bad about her: she's gone No, no, no, no, don't, don't throw it away 'Cause tonight, I might need it It gets real lonely around here at night some times An' I have to read read it Besides, you can show it to the boys down town They won't believe that she's gone There used to be a time I was all she ever wanted All the man that she'll ever need I come home to find, just like that, she's up an' vanished An' the only thing she left behind for me: Is this big blue note Folded up in my pocket Yeah, don't laugh: it's been two months; I still got it Sometimes I have to read the s**er twice Just to make sure I ain't forgot that she's gone You know, my psychiatrist said: "Tell me, what do you see "When you look at these inkspots "Of, er, reds, yellows an' greens?" You know, I looked at 'em all But they all looked to me like big blue notes There used to be a time I was all she ever wanted All the man that she'll ever need I come home to find, just like that, she's up an' vanished An' the only thing that's left to do for me: Is stand high on this cliff Overlooking the sea With my big blue notepaper aeroplane That I just set free An' I'm gonna wait here a few more minutes An' if it don't come back to me: You guessed it: she's gone Crash landing Bye bye, baby
