I couldn’t meet their glances I was staring at my shoes It was acid it was tragic
It was almost like the blues
It was almost like the blues
I have to die a little
Between each murderous thought
And when I’m finished thinking
I have to die a lot
There’s torture and there’s killing And there’s all my bad reviews
The war the children missing Lord it’s almost like the blues
It’s almost like the blues
So I let my heart get frozen
To keep away the rot
My father said I’m chosen
My mother said I’m not
I listened to their story
Of the Gypsies and the Jews It was good it wasn’t boring
It was almost like the blues
It was almost like the blues
There is no God in Heaven
And there is no Hell below
So says the great professor
Of all there is to know
But I’ve had the invitation
That a sinner can’t refuse And it’s almost like salvation
It’s almost like the blues
It’s almost like the blues
Almost like the blues
Almost like the blues
