CD Lover Blues



(sung to the tune of "Third Degree" by Willie Dixon)

press her start-up button
my baby likes to play
shocks that came a-jarrin’
stopped her along the way

refrain:
bad love, turnin’ bad love
the kind that was a-thrillin’ me
when her spinning disc came rollin’
is now only killin’ me

i could ride her up a river
fetch water for the day
her juices kept on flowin’
now she never goes all the way

(refrain)

from analog to M>P 4 her
it kept our love alive
but the highs and lows were muffled
i guess we could survive but…

(refrain)

i had a notion to replace her
Phillip-ed out with a new black face
but when the L>E>D said "No C>D"
i had to put her back in her place

(refrain)

i was sorry that i'd left her
in silent inner grooves
i packed the black to give it back
but when i got home she done moved

(refrain)

so i play my babe defective
she sings for me when she can
can’t stop the shocks that closed her shop
but she is still my only woman

refrain:
bad love, turnin’ bad love
the kind that was a-thrillin’ me
when her spinning disc came rollin’
is now only killin’ me
