lyrics

Mr. Mischievous


Lifted on the stage
Your mischievous eyes a flitter
You roll up to the mic
That booming voice sends shivers

You have us laughing
Then the dagger hits our chest
The places and the stories
We won’t soon forget

Didn’t I hear you say
Your sorrow seemed silly
Didn’t I hear you say
You weren’t quite ready
What a roller coaster you must have been on

Learned to play guitar
From you granddaddy in Zebulon
Running through the woods
Like a skinny Genghis Khan

You captured all those worlds
With a shrewd unflinching eye
And in the way you tell it
We feel like we’re inside

Didn’t I hear you say
Your sorrow seemed silly
Didn’t I hear you say
You weren’t quite ready
What a roller coaster you must have been on

Ain’t it funny and ironic
As a self-proclaimed atheist
You decide to leave this place
On the day of Christmas
