Second single from Ernest Graves. An acoustic driven Alt-Country song reminiscent of early Wilco, Beck and Eels.

lyrics

VERSE 1

Goodbye Loretta
I guess the joke was on me.
I was too blind to realise, I was too dumb to see.
It was bright and it was loud
That God awful sound
I caught myself laughing
And I can never be found

CHORUS

Is this comedy that you sold me?

VERSE 2

Goodbye Ruby-Sue
My laugh won't do
It won't keep us warm at night
It won't pay my dues
And I'm always betting, on horses that'll lose
And I'm cutting loose now, cause I've blown a fuse

CHORUS

Is this comedy that you sold me?

Solo

CHORUS

Is this comedy that you sold me?

OUTRO

No one is laughing at you.
