"Call Me The Bard" lyrics

"Call Me The Bard"

I used to lead with my head as my feet
My heart used to be irrelevant
Yearning for more, a place in the score
My soundtrack would be excellent
How many tales will I tell
'Til I go on my own adventure? (own adventure)
Strumming along, just a bard with a song
So they all remember

So they all
So they all

I'm bored again, guess I'll pretend
I'm from some distant magic land
How very hard to be a bard
In San Tan Valley, Arizona
Romanticize my silly life
Khaki armor, quest to Wal-Mart
Someday I'll die, but for now I'm alive
So hand me a pen and call me The Bard

Ah-ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah
(Louder!)
Ah-ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah
(Second verse!)

Lately I think I've been stuck on the brink
Afraid to leave all that I know behind
Word spreading now of a bard town to town
My music and I blooming here online
Orpheus sings for a Eurydice
Who is gone for good now (Gone for good now)
What would I lose if I was in his shoes
If I turn around?
It's a lonely path, isn't it? Of a bard with an itch
To do more than he knows how

More than he knows
More than he-

I'm bored again, guess I'll pretend
I'm from some distant magic land
How very hard to be a bard
In San Tan Valley, Arizona
Romanticize my silly life
Khaki armor, quest to Wal-Mart
Someday I'll die but for now I'm alive
Send me on tour and call me The Bard

Ah-ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah

Places to be and people to meet
Stories to tell to the curious listener
Someday I'll change my name, rearrange
And when I return, I may not know my face
But I'll try to be brave on the brink that I contemplate
Going beyond 'til the grave 'cause there's always
Another quest waiting to take me and make me
A little less wise and a little more lost
'Cause the more that I know, the more that I don't
And I'm chasing it now, I'm leaving this town
I'm writing my findings and not slowing down

I'm bored again, guess I'll pretend
I'm from some distant magic land
How very hard to be a bard
In San Tan Valley, Arizona
Romanticize my silly life
Khaki armor, quest to Wal-Mart
Someday I'll die, but for now I'm alive
So call me The Bard (Call me The Bard)
(The Bard)

Call me The Bard
Call me The Bard
Call me The Bard
Call me The Bard (I'm bored again)
Call me The Bard (Call me The Bard)
Call me The Bard
