about
I wanted to do a Bluesy track, but since I grew up on Mercer Island I really don't have a right to sing the blues so I started thinking about an ironic blues. The singer's life is super awesome but he complains about it anyhow.
lyrics
If I had ninety-nine problems that would be just fine
I got me just one and it's the female kind
I've been cursed with this Angel's voice
and being born so handsome was not my choice
I've got troubles, Lord it's true
I've got troubles, that's why I'm blue
It's rough that I'm so witty, modest, and refined
Magnanimous and charming is such a grind
I can hardly go out anywhere
Women start to riot, they don't want to share
I am such a lovely, selfless, giving, so and so
When it comes to pretty women I just can't say "no"
In this Sea of Ladies I'm gonna drown
So, please let there be enough of me to go around
Help me, Sweet Jesus, I hope and pray
I'll be delivered from here someday
But until then I'll do what I can
Oh, woe is me--The Perfect Man
I've got troubles, oh Lord it's true
I've got troubles, what will I do?
