Quicksand Kerry - You Left Me and You Jinxed Me

from Music Kept Me Sane: The Best of Quicksand Kerry 1998​-​2008 by Kerry JK

about

Recorded in a single take on each instrument (organ, guitar and vocals over programmed drums), this is from the point of view of a dysfunctional, abusive and justifiably dumped protagonist.

I later wrote a sequel from the point of view of his aggrieved former partner - Nothing For You Here appears on the Jenni Bluish No Fury EP.

lyrics

My gears have locked, my life won't start
My masterplan has fallen apart
The city bus don't come by no more
I'm sat at home feeling mighty sore
And it's all your fault!
You left me!
And you jinxed me!

I bet on a horse, it was an also-ran
My stash got busted by the man
I ain't got a job
I ain't got a hope
I ain't got squat
My life's a joke
And it's all your fault!
You left me!
And you jinxed me!

My clothes all stink and my hair's a mess
I can't even go out, I'm so bloody depressed
I'm out of J.D.
I'm out of style
I ain't been happy in too long a while
And it's all your fault!
You left me!
And you jinxed me!
