purple smoothie
purple shirt and every morning
write the song with one hand
and no one will get hurt
purple smoothie
purple shirt i wear it proud
and no matter what you say i'll sing out loud

purple smoothie
purple shirt the fabric thinning
into a million pieces
pick up the threads and no one gets hurt
purple smoothie
purple shirt it makes no sound
but the song i write and sing is all around

and i have another thought
and the days go by
and it's over wrought
but i don't mind
i am just another servant
don't heed my words
this is just another moment
of bones and birds

purple smoothie
purple shirt the color purple is such a strange one
radioactive and inert
purple smoothie
purple shirt i wear it proud
and no matter what you say i'll sing out loud

Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 10+ years.

Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.
