“Ruby” is a distinctively “Charly Bliss” tune with its juxtaposition of fuzzy guitars and squeaky clean vocals that the band included on Guppy because they believed it “fit so well with the rest of the record.”
Lyrically, it is an ode to Eva’s therapist thanking her for helping Eva overcome her ons...
[Verse 1]
Six weeks better than me
Digging a hole in the Michigan sea
Find me barely alive
Too stupid to stay and too freaked out to drive
[Chorus]
Ditch me, gone to see Ruby
Keep me afloat on call
She's pro; I'm not that bad, though
Maybe I've gone too far
[Verse 2]
Guardrail, taking the stairs
Passed out on the subway with blood in my hair
I guess I need a ride
I'll check with my boyfriend and see if it's fine
[Chorus]
Ditch me, gone to see Ruby
Keep me afloat on call
She's pro; I'm not that bad, though
Maybe I've gone too far
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Ditch me, gone to see Ruby
Keep me afloat on call
She's pro; I'm not that bad, though
Maybe I've gone too
Maybe I've gone too
Maybe I've gone too far
