Even the Blues Gets the Blues

Even the blues gets the blues

Even the saddest things on earth must pay their dues

They never had an option

Or a choice to choose

Even the blues gets the blues

Since the dawn of humankind

There has been such trouble on their mind

Every lover left behind

Every dream that came to die

Since the dawn of humankind

Try as they might

There is no respite

The blues are getting bluer all the time

In warmth's absence only bitter cold

Felt in bodies that turned frail and old

Missed opportunities

Every truth which wasn't told

In warmth's absence only cold

The universe didn't deal out fair

It gave some plenty and it left some bare

It made some folks a crown

And some a sock without a pair

The universe didn't turn out fair

It hits hard and fast

And heavy as a house full of bricks

It can crush the strongest soul

Before it can even flinch

Even the blues gets the blues

Even the saddest things on earth must pay their dues

They never had an option

Or a choice to choose

Even the blues gets the blues

Even the blues gets the blues

Even the blues gets the blues
