About

“Bottle Of Blues” is the eighth track off of Beck’s 1998 album, “Mutations”. The title references alcohol, as it is a depressant, making it like the “blues”. It is a personal song of Beck’s, as it is about his struggle to be taken seriously in the music industry and still be up to date.

Bottle Of Blues Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I just found me a bottle of blues
Some strange comfort for a soul to soothe
Ain't it hard
Ain't it hard
To want somebody who doesn't want you
And I've been waiting for a year, a day
Some strange weather must be blowing my way
Cause I got no mind to go or to stay
Or be left behind

[Chorus]
Holding hands with an impotent dream
In a brothel of fake energy
Put a nickel in the graveyard machine
I get higher and lower
I get higher and lower
Like a tired soldier
With nothing' to shoot
And nowhere to lose
This bottle of blues

[Verse 2]
Egos drone
And pose alone
Like black balloons
All banged and blown
On a backwoods river
The infidels shiver
In the stench of belief
And tell my momma I'm a hundred years late
I'm over the rails
And out of the race
And the crippled psalms
Of an age that won't thaw
Are ringing in my ears

[Chorus]
Holding' hands with an impotent dream
In a brothel of fake energy
Put a nickel in the graveyard machine
I get higher and lower
I get higher and lower
Like a tired soldier
With nothing to shoot
And nowhere to lose this
Bottle of blues

[Verse 1]
Well I just found me a bottle of blues
Some strange comfort for a soul to soothe
Ain't it hard, ain't it hard
To want somebody who doesn't want you

[Chorus]
Holding' hands with an impotent dream
In a brothel of fake energy
Put a nickel in the graveyard machine
I get higher and lower
I get higher and lower
Like a tired soldier
With nothing to shoot
And nowhere to lose this
Bottle of blues
