Lyrics

Square Peg Blues
Words & Music by Dave Nachmanoff

I've got a fridge full of nothin'
And a mailbox full of bills
The classifieds have lots of jobs
But no one wants my skills
I'm a square peg in a round hole
I just never seem to fit
Gonna have to shave these corners off a bit

Chorus:
Michelangelo, he'd know what to do
Take a little here, add a little there
And I'd look like David too
But unlike Michelangelo, I haven't got a clue
I've got those feelin' like a square peg
In a round hole blues

In this town full of flat-tops
I've still got a pony-tail
They got their degree from prep school
I got mine from county jail
I'm no follower of fashion
And I guess sometimes that shows
But you shouldn't judge a person by his clothes

Chorus

This town is full of pretty women
But I never get a date
The grocery store says "Three's a crowd"
But they always make me wait
I'm a diamond in the rough
I'm not ugly mean or dumb
I'm just marchin' to a slightly different drum

Chorus

Dave proudly endorses Access Bags and Cases and has toured with them for many years.
