Bombadil - One Whole Year lyrics

[Bombadil - One Whole Year lyrics]

One day I went to work
Told em I had had enough
I was born to be an artist I
Was meant for paint and brush
So I sold all I owned
What I didn’t sell I burned
And I moved in with my parents
Bought supplies with what I’d earned
And now all I got to show
For these empty cans of paint
Is a portrait of my mother
A suburban landscape
All the people that I met
All the time that I spent
Was a poor man’s fortune but
It didn’t pay the rent
I made it one whole year
Think it went pretty well but
I’ll tell you in
A minute it was shorter than it felt
The nurse called my name and


I hobbled to my feet
And the test results were good enough
To let em set me free
Now they’re tearing off my casts
And I’m trying to recall
How to walk and how to dance and
How it feels when I fall
I pleaded with the judge and
I cried to the jury
But my lawyer says it’s over
And I really shouldn’t worry
I thought I’d get off clean but
They heard my past was checkered
Don’t they know a man is more
Than what’s recorded on the record
So they hauled me off in chains and
They showed me to my cell
It’s a place that never rains
It’s a steel umbrella
