When The Debtor Calls
It’s make or break
Which way you gonna take
The world
Heaven was felled
When hostages held
A girl
Who sat idly by
The crux of the matter
Is that he’s mad as a hatter
And no one knows how to stop him
When the debtor calls
Pin stripe overalls
We’ve got to grab him by the balls and drop him
Down a hole
I measure the days
By how many ways
We fail
I’ve got mine
Updating real time
The whale
Swimming in a dark sea
The crux of the matter
Is that he’s mad as a hatter
And no one knows how to stop him
When the debtor calls
Pin stripe overalls
We’ve got to grab him by the balls and drop him
Down a hole
Don’t give chase
When your tongue can’t taste
The beach
The sand is dust
And the water is just
Out of reach
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 9+ 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.
You can see my most current song, as well as songs from year's past over at http://songaday.org
