Bill Osofsky songs
An Oak Lane production. Brian singing
SHORT TRIP TO STUPID
(verse)
It rained that Monday night in Kansas City
The Royals game was on the bar TV
She sat down and asked if I had matches
I lit her up, she had a beer with me.
(verse)
She'd been lonely since the day her husband left her
I was on the road, just passing through
Too many drinks, still angry from your phone call
When she took my hand, I took her to my room.
(chorus)
I should have been smart enough
Not to wander down that track
Cause it's a short trip to stupid
But it's a long road coming back.
(verse)
I guess you couldn't sleep and had to call me
I'll never know why she picked up my phone
I hope that you believe how much I love you
Please, let the light be on when I get home.
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
What can I do to ever make things right
Ten years of trusting, gone in just one night
(repeat chorus)
