lyrics

I was stuck inside Port Townsend
Stuck outside a dream
Listening to Pete Townsend
Wonderin' if you think of me

I remember when I first saw you
You were dancin' at the grange
It was a reggae buffet and you thought I was gay
And the words were out of range

Hey - I know what you're thinkin'
Hey - I know what you're thinkin'

I caught you stealin' from the tip jar
You caught me cryin' in my car
But your American mind and your Canadian body
Left me sleepin' in your yard

You left a high and wasted scene
When you bought a pair of high-waisted jeans
You found a new town that you could bike around
Got a job at the bakery

Hey - I know what you're thinkin'
Hey - I know what you're thinkin

I was halfway through some novel
That I did not understand
I was hopin' for a story that would
Make me a better man

And I know what you're thinkin'
"Why did I pick up the telephone"?
But I still know my Tai Kwon Do
You should hear me play the slide trombone

Tonight we're startin' somethin'
Tonight we're startin' somethin'
Tonight we're startin' somethin'
Tonight we're startin' somethin'

about

Karl Blau Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

These records are all over the place. My latest studio record Love & Harm consists of a modern country rock sound featuring the pedal steel of Jon Hyde (Introducing) and amazing players you'd recognize from playing on stage with me. Living in Germantown, Philadlephia, started a recording project called Opal Eskar, check that out too. ... more
