Blue Overall

Blue overall 
Overall the rooftops blue birds fly apart 
Blue overall 
Overall the bones that cage this stupid heart 

Got blues drawing crosses on my front door 
Blues a'bringing buckets 'round the back 
Blues trying to push me from me white fence 
And tar me a darker bluey black 

For all this time 
I really thought you loved me 
For all this time 
You only rubber gloved me 

Blue overall 
Overall my anvil gives no further sparks 
Blue overall 
Overall my fears swim hammer headed sharks 

Got blues drinking beer out in the kitchen 
Blue dog is barking to be fed 
Got blues spilling wine upon me heartrug 
They're holding a party in my head 

For all this time 
I really thought you loved me 
For all this time 
You merely went and shoved me 

I tried to lose myself in labour 
The more I push the mirth 
I'm giving birth to a baby's turning 

Blue overall 
Feeling blue overall 
All over I'm turning blue
