FORGOT SOMETHING blues song lyrics
by Joel Sattler
you kiss your wife and walk out the door
off to work not a minute more
hop in the car and you turn the key
ease into traffic most carefully
but you forgot something forgot
what it is I know not
you park your car and punch the clock
you take off your coat and roll up the rock
you get it to the top and it rolls back down
you chase it to the bottom and go round and round
but you forgot something a lot
what hath God wrought?
you go to lunch eat a burger fries
it's always the same you don't like surprise
and afternoon it's more of the same
but still there's something eating at your brain
you forgot something, you're not just a robot
it's tying you up in knots
everybody does it
everybody tries
everybody puts it
on for size
everybody hopes to get
a job that pays
everybody has
one of those days
back in the traffic you get back home
thank the dear Lord that you're not alone
the wife and kids glad to see you back
there isn't a god dam thing you lack
but still you know you forgot
what?
