about

Thank you Kat and the Hurricane for breathing a new life into this song in a way I never dreamed of.

lyrics

Couldn't sleep so I slept in today.
Didn't wanna work so I called in today.
They'll probably fire me, but I don't really care, cuz shit always happens and it's not fair.
Car got a flat tire again today.
But I got nowhere to be anyway.
So maybe I'll stay home, try to figure out what this life really is, what it's all about.
But tomorrow will be the same like the day before. Nothing good seems to happen to me anymore.

I'm just gonna blame it on you. It's all your fault.
I'm gonna blame it on you. It's you by default.
If tomorrow I wake up and the sun is shining through, then maybe it's a sign that I don't need you.

Don't know why I ever gave you my heart.
Cuz you left me alone from the start.
Now every other man is a big letdown, and I think it's all because you were never around.

So I'm just gonna blame it on you. It's all your fault.
I'm gonna blame it on you. It's you by default.
If tomorrow I wake up and the sun is shining through, then maybe it's a sign that I don't need you.

And why did it have to be this way?
Was I not enough reason to stay?
I could have been your girl, but all I see is a silly little boy that doesn't agree.

So I'm just gonna blame it on you. It's not my fault.
I'm gonna blame it on you. And all bets are off.
If tomorrow you come home and I'm still here, then maybe it was really meant to be, my dear.
But the sun is coming up, and it's shining through, so maybe it's a sign that I don't need you.

"Alternative and folky, Candace Griffin's music comes straight from the heart. As a songwriter, she takes inspiration from the life around her, and with honest words and acoustic-driven emotions, she puts her listeners right in the moment. You'll think the songs were written just for you." (Bio by Caitlin Wildhagen) ... more
