Listening to the big guy’s new CD
Laying in bed
The one his producer thinks
He never should have made
But it gets me going
Gets me into the shower
What a shock to be awake
At this early hour

And you’re gone
It was time to fly
And all that’s left
Is the fact we tried
So thanks for the tunes
And thanks for the time
You’re gone now
Baby bye bye

Them guys from Orange County
Man do they wail
Shakes my brain
And it shakes my tail
New girl on top of me
Will this work out?
I retreat to the kitchen
And sort it all out

And you’re gone
It was time to fly
And all that’s left is the fact we tried
So thanks for the tunes
And thanks for the time
You’re gone now
Baby bye bye

You left your keys on the table
And on the bed you left a rose
And a note, said my CD’s
Won’t fit in the car
You can keep them I s’pose

This disc was left out in the sun
It’s warped and it’s hissing
I can’t place the voice
And the insert’s missing
I turn off the phone
So you don’t call and it’s all right
And maybe I won’t listen
To nothing tonight

And you’re gone
It was time to fly
And all that’s left
Is the fact we tried
So thanks for the tunes
And thanks for the time
You’re gone now
Baby bye bye

You’re gone
It was time to fly
And all that’s left is the fact we tried
So thanks for the tunes
And thanks for the time
You’re gone now
Baby bye bye
You’re gone now
Baby bye bye
You’re gone now
Baby bye bye
