Human Blues - Live at The Dawn Of the Apocalypse. September 10, 2020.

This little ditty fell out of me one day as I was walking along Don Mills Rd...

Human Blues (1998)

don't want what's sittin' in the fridge, no
don't want what's sittin' in the cupboard, no

i don't know what it is that i want
only know that i don't want what i got
don't know what i really want because
i only want what it is that i don't got

don't want who's payin' me my cheque, no
don't like them makin' me a wreck, no

i don't know what it is that i want
only know that i don't want what i got
don't know what i really want because
i only want what it is that i don't got

don't want who's sleepin' in my bed, no
don't like these voices in my head, no (no, no, no)

i don't know what it is that i want
only know that i don't want what i got
don't know what i really want because
i only want what it is that i don't got

no food, no drink, no head, no
no cheques, no wrecks, no sex, no

i don't know what it is that i want
only know that i don't want what i got
don't know what i really want because
i only want what it is that i don't got

what it is that i don't got

if i’ve got it then I don't want it
if i want it then I don’t got it
i only want what it is that i don't got
