See That Big Blue Note,
Over There On The Counter?
You Don't Wanna Read That Thing, Man,
It's A Real Get-you-downer.
But Don't You Dare Say Nothin' Else,
Bad About Her: She's Gone.

No, No, No, No, Don't, Don't Throw It Away,
'Cause Tonight, I Might Need It.
It Gets Real Lonely Around Here At Night Some Times,
An' I Have To Read Read It.
Besides, You Can Show It To The Boys Down Town,
They Won't Believe That She's Gone.

There Used To Be A Time I Was All She Ever Wanted.
All The Man That She'll Ever Need.
I Come Home To Find, Just Like That, She's Up An' Vanished.
An' The Only Thing She Left Behind For Me:

Is This Big Blue Note,
Folded Up In My Pocket.
Yeah, Don't Laugh: It's Been Two Months;
I Still Got It.
Sometimes I Have To Read The Sucker Twice,
Just To Make Sure I Ain't Forgot That She's Gone.

You Know, My Psychiatrist Said:
"Tell Me, What Do You See,
"When You Look At These Inkspots,
"Of, Er, Reds, Yellows An' Greens?"
You Know, I Looked At 'em All,
But They All Looked To Me Like Big Blue Notes.

Instrumental Break.

There Used To Be A Time I Was All She Ever Wanted.
All The Man That She'll Ever Need.
I Come Home To Find, Just Like That, She's Up An' Vanished.
An' The Only Thing That's Left To Do For Me:

Is Stand High On This Cliff,
Overlooking The Sea.
With My Big Blue Notepaper Aeroplane,
That I Just Set Free.
An' I'm Gonna Wait Here A Few More Minutes,
An' If It Don't Come Back To Me:
You Guessed It: She's Gone.

Crash Landing.
Bye Bye, Baby.
