Billy Joel - A Minor Variation lyrics

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 going to lose
And I'll tell you why you think I'm crazy
It's such a sad composition
But can you blame me
For what's been causing my bad disposition?
Ain't nothing new with my blue situation
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 it's a strange thing
'Cause now it don't really matter
More of the same thing
Don't even hurt it's all 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
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 hit's me again
'Cause I've gotten tough it doesn't faze me
And now I've made my decision i may be crazy
It's not as though I
Don't know that 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'
Ain't nobody's problem no way to win when
You've already been forgotten

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

A minor variation
It ain't no major complication
It's just a minor variation that's all it is
That's all it is
It ain't no major aggravation
It's just a minor variation
It ain't nothin', babe
