about
The first single from Chicago sketch comedy duo Crassus, about the frustrations of one Geoff Crump and his inability to play guitar. Not like that will stop him from trying....
The single is yours to enjoy for $.50 (or more, if you're feeling generous! Did we mention we love you?), and the money will go directly to help feed our destructive Comedy-making habit!
lyrics
You look back on your life and I’m willing to bet
The first things that you dwell on are all your regrets.
I could have done this. I should have done that.
A million and one failed attempts in your hat.
Well let me tell you...
I wish that I had taken the time to learn the guitar.
Guitar men always seem to know who they are,
And who they can do, or what they can get,
A guitar man’s life is the greatest...
I bet.
When I’m strumming my strings, and I’m playing in key,
I bet all the ladies will fall to their knees.
First I play it real slow and then I play it real fast,
Then I bring it back down again to make the song last.
I wish that I had taken the time to learn the guitar.
Guitar men always seem to know who they are,
And who they can do, or what they can get,
A guitar man’s life is the greatest...
I bet.
Oh what I would give to have my life back!
Oh if I could change around my luck!
Oh if I could practice another decade or two
Then maybe, just maybe I wouldn’t suck
Two! Three! Three!
I wish that I had taken the time to learn the guitar.
Guitarmen always seem to know who they are,
And who they can do, and what they can get,
A guitarman’s life is the greatest...
I bet.
