Shrimp Splurge Blues

Lyrics

[Verse]
Justin sits at his lonely place
Shrimp piled high on his porcelain plate
Dipping dreams into cocktail tears
He's been feeding his blues for years

[Chorus]
Oh Justin why do you cry so deep
Splurging shrimp while the world’s asleep
You build a tower but it topples down
Turn that frown into a shrimp-crowned crown

[Verse 2]
Saucy regrets drip on his sleeve
Cracking shells but he still can't leave
Lost in tangy tides of despair
Justin's heart is heavier than air

[Bridge]
Shrimp tails fall one by one
A salty ocean under the sun
But he keeps eating through the stormy night
Hoping somehow he'll feel alright

[Chorus]
Oh Justin why do you cry so deep
Splurging shrimp while the world’s asleep
You build a tower but it topples down
Turn that frown into a shrimp-crowned crown

[Verse 3]
In the end it's not the shrimp to blame
But the memories tied to his name
He eats to muffle the aching sound
Of a broken heart that's spinning round
