lyrics

Can’t Do That Now © Brian Straub 4/23/09

Verse 1

The sun is on the rise before I open my eyes
Hell I thought I was getting up early
She’s a thousand miles south running that town
Making all them stuffed shirts squirrely

Verse 2
The dreams in my mind, they ain’t the sleeping kind
They keep me up way past tomorrow
Working through the day just for a little pay
When it’s really time I need to borrow

Chorus 1

I’ve been to the south of France, I’d love another chance
Even if I knew how, I can’t do that now can’t do that now
I’ve loved a thousand women, in my head they’ve been living
Even if I knew how, I can’t do that now can’t do that now

Verse 3
The dishes in the sink really make me think
How I waste all my free time on the side
Should I play my guitar or go wash my car
It’s a no brainer but still I can’t decide

Verse 4
The books on my shelf say something about myself
Setting up that perfect set up
But what does it matter, I’m just building a ladder
Spending all that time to never get up

Chorus 2
I want to go to the south of France, learn to ballroom dance
Even if you showed me how, I can’t do that now can’t do that now
Can’t do that now, can’t do that now
Can’t do that now, can’t do that now can’t do that now

My two previous bands, Armadillo Borealis and Secondhand Sunday, performed and recorded some of my songs that are represented here. This year (2016), I started Dog House Prayers and began documenting more of my songs through home recording. ... more
