Bascom's Blues

Nobody’s gonna tell you
Nobody wants you to know
Nobody’s gonna show you
Where all the money goes
If you become a big dog
They’ll buy you a Cadillac
But if they can’t recoup that Coupe DeVille
They’ll take it back
So to yourself be true
And on your way up to the moon
Don’t let Bascom’s blues
Fall down on you
They said he was a genius
The best they’d ever heard
All he needed was a new sound
And a high-powered PR firm
Well he sold a million records
But it wasn’t what he dreamed of
Cause when it came time for the payoff
There was not enough
You know you just gotta do what you gotta do
And not look back
