lyrics

Did you pay your mourning dues?
Did you make the evening nous?

Have you been? Have you gone? Did the symptoms linger on?
Did you back? Did you forth? Did you find Magnetic North?
And do you feel - do you feel the Blues?

Expect the spirit to move you any day now
Expect the practice to improve you any day now
Expect the power to compel you any day now
Expect your demons to expel you any day now

Did you give all you had?
Did you forgive your mom and dad?

Did you bend? Did you break? Did you sleepwalk wide awake?
Did you show? Did you tell? Did you know it just as well?
And do you feel? Do you feel?

Expect the chair to recognize you any day now
Expect the parties to surprise you any day now
Expect your trials to acquit you any day now
Expect forgiveness to permit you any day now

When you’re down and out and all hope is gone
And you’re fighting your way out of hell
And I’m failing you like the way I do
Like I know so much better myself

And encouragement would be heaven-sent
From the one in your corner well then
I will Lady MacBeth you from here to your death (come what come may)
‘Cause I love you forever and ever and ever amen

Expect perdition to disown you any day now
Expect ambition to enthrone you any day now
Expect the planets to align you any day now
Expect the challenge to refine you any day now

Expect the pilot to ignite you any day now
Expect the riot to incite you any day now
Expect the muse to come upon you any day now
Expect conclusion to foregone you any day now

Val Yumm
by Val Yumm

When this came out in 2003 I played the CD 'til it BROKE. Smart, catchy, beautifully rendered alt-rock goodness. Singer/songwriter/guitarist Val Yumm made me feel seen AND rocked my socks off. Mary Prankster
