Blues Is Dead is the fifth song on O, the fourth album by Dutch alternative-rock band De Staat.
It makes fun of blues music and its clichés.
Ironicall, the song itself is a blues-rock song featuring typical lyrics, riffs and a swing-feel.
Blues Is Dead Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning, went back to sleep
Cause no one's waiting, got no promises to keep
My baby left me, but that's OK
So many babies on this planet anyway
[Chorus]
Hip hip hooray
Blues is dead
[Verse 2]
I keep on spending, but I won't get poor
To every illness in this land there is a cure
I won't be howlin', I'm having fun
I got 99 solutions and the blues got none
[Chorus]
Hip hip hooray
Blues is dead
[Verse 2]
No I won't howl
I will relax
Put on the heat, enjoy a drink and pay my taxes
[Chorus]
Hip hip hooray
Blues is dead
