The February Blues - Week Four - Day Two


When the wind blows edition

Oh the joys of another Ontario winter.
Glaring your way, British Columbia folk. So very jealous.

Because I am a nerd I decided to try and write a "blues" song every week. Not so much a blues song, but a song with the word blues in the title. So far three weeks out of four. Perhaps I'll need two this week to catch up

Enjoy

The February Blues

Listen up
I’m gonna tell you something
Listen close
I’m not too loud

Every twelve months
the same thing always happens
Next year I wanna be
Livin’ in a warmer town

Used to be
It never mattered
But these old bones
Are growin’ frail

If we don’t leave this place
Before the november’s cold embrace
My locomotive heart
Could be derailed

Every year
It’s the same old story
But the plot
Is getting worse

I’ve seen enough damn snow for
A thousand frozen lives
Seems like Global warming
In reverse
