about

A poppy folk rock song reminiscent of The Beatles, Tom Petty, Jackson Browne, and like songs from those artists, it includes a little philosophical twist.

lyrics

Lyrics:

She’s at the window, standing the watch.
All her friends say she’s way out of touch.
She looks fine but there’s nobody home.
When people call she won’t answer the phone.

Chorus:
JoAnn, you don’t have to play the fool.
JoAnn, the way you’re livin’s just not cool.

He did this, then he said that.
You left a message, he didn’t phone back.
Hey, what the hell is a girl to do.
Who’s so dependent on a chosen few?

Chorus:

Bridge 1:
Why do you view your world this way.
You own the ticket, there’s no need to pay.
Now you can wallow ‘round in shades of blue.
Or you can kick it out, and break on through.

Bridge 2:
Slip on your heels, get on your feet.
No one but you can make your life complete.
Pull back the shades, let the sun pour in.
Feel how good it is to live again.

Chorus:
Tag:
Hey . . . Joann, slip off those ragged old blues.
Joann, the way you’re livin’s just not cool.
