30 (From 21 Through 35)
Dan Deacon

This is the day of the expanding man

That shape is my shade

There where I used to stand


It seems like only yesterday

I gazed through the glass

At ramblers, wild gamblers

That's all in the past


You call me a fool

You say it's a crazy scheme

This one's for real

I already bought the dream


So useless to ask me why

Throw a kiss and say goodbye

I'll make it this time

I'm ready to cross that fine line


I'll learn to work the saxophone

I'll play just what I feel

Drink scotch, whiskey all night long

And die behind the wheel


They got a name for the winners in the world

I want a name when I lose

They call Alabama the Crimson Tide

Call me Deacon Blues


My back to the wall

A victim of laughing chance

This is for me

The essence of true romance


Sharing the things we know and love

With those of my kind

Libations, sensations

That stagger the mind


I crawl like a viper

Through these suburban streets


Make love to these women

Languid and bittersweet


I'll rise when the sun goes down

Cover every game in town

A world of my own

I'll make it my home sweet home


I'll learn to work the saxophone

I'll play just what I feel

Drink scotch, whiskey all night long

And die behind the wheel


They got a name for the winners in the world

I want a name when I lose

They call Alabama the Crimson Tide

Call me Deacon Blues


This is the night

Of the expanding the man

I take one last drag

As I approach the stand


I cried when I wrote this song

Sue me if I play too long

This brother is free

I'll be what I want to be


I'll learn to work the saxophone

I'll play just what I feel

Drink scotch, whiskey all night long

And die behind the wheel


They got a name for the winners in the world

I want a name when I lose

They call Alabama the Crimson Tide

Call me Deacon Blues
