Black Tea and Sad Jazz Songs by Chet Baker (feat. Rafitos)
I spend my days doing nothing at all
But listening to Chet Baker telling me
That he gets along without his girl very well
Oh well, I wonder, can you tell
That I've been putting myself through hell
For a girl that wouldn't even do it as well
Hey, fine, enough of this crying
I ain't got the time
I've been tryna do the same, but I'm to blame
For being so tame on my game
Lately I've been trying to see
What's it gonna be of only me
'Cause I don't need no other girl
To make me more crazy
So I spend my days
Swimming in black tea
Hoping that Lady Grey
Will be the one to take care of me
I spend my days doing nothing at all
But neither of them will be the one
To lift me when I fall
She was my heroine
But not the one those jazzmen used to mean
Sorry for singing about this again
It's just that right now I can't
Think of much else to sing sbout
You know that I've been down and out
This ain't gonna be some radio hit
It's just to help myself to
Quit the drug that is that smile on her face
That shit hits my heart like a mace
But I've healing at my own pace
So I'll drop the needle on
"It Could Happen To You"
'Cause I've never seen a record with words
That have ever been more true
So I spend my days
Swimming in black tea
Hoping that Lady Grey
Will be the one to take care of me
I spend my days doing nothing at all
But neither of them will be the one
To lift me when I fall
So I spend my days
Swimming in black tea
Hoping that Lady Grey
Will be the one to take care of me
I spend my days doing nothing at all
But now I realize I gotta be the one
To lift myself when I fall
But listening to Chet Baker telling me
That he gets along without his girl very well
Oh well, I wonder, can you tell
That I've been putting myself through hell
For a girl that wouldn't even do it as well
Hey, fine, enough of this crying
I ain't got the time
I've been tryna do the same, but I'm to blame
For being so tame on my game
Lately I've been trying to see
What's it gonna be of only me
'Cause I don't need no other girl
To make me more crazy
So I spend my days
Swimming in black tea
Hoping that Lady Grey
Will be the one to take care of me
I spend my days doing nothing at all
But neither of them will be the one
To lift me when I fall
She was my heroine
But not the one those jazzmen used to mean
Sorry for singing about this again
It's just that right now I can't
Think of much else to sing sbout
You know that I've been down and out

But neither of them will be the one
To lift me when I fall
So I spend my days
Swimming in black tea
Hoping that Lady Grey
Will be the one to take care of me
I spend my days doing nothing at all
But now I realize I gotta be the one
To lift myself when I fall
