Loudon Wainwright III - In C Lyrics

Here's another song in C
When I play piano, it's my key
If I was playing my guitar
I'd probably be in G, the chances are

Here is another song in C
With my favorite protagonist me
Of my little world talent show
I sing all about it so you will know

When people in it break my heart
Then my little world came fall apart
And there is not a thing I can do
Except to sing in C to you

Used to be a family
Brother sister father mother and me
We were living in a little home
We were defeating from the great unknown

But the great unknown got inside
What happened oh he did divide
In the end father had to leave
When he did the mother had to grief

That is the time when real troubles start
Is when a world can fall apart
And there is not a thing I can do
Except to sing in C to you

I pull up and had a family
And it broke apart so easily
All that started thirty years ago
Why it's never ending I don't know

I could blame on the great unknown
Or as a kid I was tall and grown
But I blame myself and I blame her
The cruel foolish people that we are

And the children that we had are grown
They are defeating of the great unknown
And I have noticed they are a little bit like me
With a tendency to sing in C
