r.i.p. broken bass - segues into an improvisation

lyrics

i've killed my darling
i broke her neck
she didn't deserve it
i'm just stupid
it's been 19 years
she is my only one
i wore a hole in her under my thumb

we walked a really long road together
picking our path as we roll
we were stamping our feet
flying off the beat
and we were never strangers at all

i was only fifteen
when i picked her up
when she went down last night
she couldn't get up
my bruises will heal
and the cuts will grow over
but my heart will be aching forever if i have to find another

we walked a really long road together
picking our path as we roll
we were stamping our feet
flying off the beat
and we were never strangers at all

so i'm gonna try and fix her
as easy as i fix me a drink
and if i can't do it i must be fucking stupid

we walked a really long road together
picking our path as we roll
we were stamping our feet
flying off the beat
and we were never strangers at all

Formed by songwriter Danthedan - The Yes Mess is a rock and roll band that contains three bass players.

Fortunately one is contained behind a drum kit and another behind an acoustic guitar; the tallest actually plays the bass.

Add to that: An idiot savant accordion player, some dancing with flamingos and a bumble bee of electric guitar.

The sum pulses and swarms.... ... more
