Gary's Blues

Lyrics

[Verse]
Gary's got a hammer, but it never hits quite square,
Drives his nails in crooked with a sigh and a stare,
Can't tie a knot to save his life, they slip right out,
All his baggage scattered, riddled with doubt.

[Verse 2]
They hired him to fix a roof, rain keeps pouring in,
Shingles lay like fallen leaves, where should he begin?
Drill in one hand, torque wrench in the other,
Both seem foreign, like he's lost without a mother.

[Chorus]
Gary, why can't you get it right?
Every task turns into a fight,
The screws come loose and the bolts turn wrong,
In this world, Gary don't belong.

[Verse 3]
Saw him on a ladder, wobbling to and fro,
Perfectly crooked a line that should be whole,
Every step he takes, another slip and fall,
Gary may be earnest, but that don’t help at all.

[Bridge]
He dreams of mastery, tools and skills aligned,
Fantasizes competence he can't seem to find,
In the mirror sees a craftsman, shadowed by his plight,
Gary versus projects is a constant fight.

[Verse 4]
The town folks shake their heads, chuckle at his state,
He's got the heart and grit, but never quite the fate,
Tried fixing up his own home, paint drips on the floors,
Every nail he hammers just echoes through the doors.
