Billy Joel Lyrics

"A Minor Variation" lyrics


Album: [River of Dreams]

Some days I have to give right in to the blues
Despite how I try to keep fightin'
It's a sure shot I'm gonna lose
And I'll tell you why
You think I'm crazy
Its such a sad composition
But can you blame me
For what's been causing my bad disposition?
And nothing's fine, it's just a minor variation

When troubles want to find me, I ain't hard to find
They know where I am
Like a hungry pack of wolves when it's feeding time
They tear up a man
And its a strange thing
'Cause now it don't really matter
all of the same thing
Don't even hurt its just a part of the pattern
But still in all it's a small consolation
I just define it as a minor variation.

Ain't no way to fight em', darling
Ain't no way around em, baby
Ain't no way to take em', honey
Nowhere to hide and believe me I've tried to shake em'

I'm getting to the point where I don't feel the pain
And I've had enough I'm ready for the next time it hits me again
'cause I've gotten tough it doesn't phase me
And now I'm made my decision
I may be crazy its not as though I don't know the condition
Until I'm through with this blue situation
Pass me the wine, it's just a minor variation.

Ain't nobody's business, baby.
Ain't nobody's worry darlin'
Aint nobody's problem
No way to win when you've already been forgotten.

And its a strange thing
'cause now It don't really matter
More of the same thing
Don't even hurt, its a part of the pattern
Until I'm through with this blue situation
Pass me the wine its' just a minor variation.
