Uncle Bob - Louden Swain

Grab a wife

And get a job

There’s no time left for Uncle Bob

He’s read all the papers and started to doze

Start looking for something to put up his nose

Dreaming with the lights left on

Knee-deep in a little fun

She says he’ll never be the one lying on the leather alone

You lost your knife

You lost your gun

Let it go

No obsession

Grief comes in phases and then it goes

Tomorrow’s another day and maybe, who knows?

Dreaming with the lights left on

Knee-deep in a little fun

She says you’ll never be the one lying on the leather alone

Either you sink or maybe you drown

You fired your shrink, he was way too downtown

Water is rising over your head

You live like you’ve wasted, then you’re dead

Then you’re dead
