Glass Half Empty

JONATHA'S NOTE:

Kevin Gilbert was on the road with us for much of the "Plumb" tour. He was so talented, so outrageous, so insatiable. It's still such a drag that he's gone.
LYRICS: I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy with your glass half empty,
Even though you got your share,

Kevin you remind me dot the i's don't drop the names of those who've Come before
Ear down to the ground don't compromise don't close your eyes until you
Get what you came looking for

Kevin you remind me don't look back, don't second guess
Have another go, have another drink, cause it won't be long
But I look down at my hands and see the violence, so I toss it back,
It's such a fine line between right and wrong

And when you've made your mark, they'll take you down
And when you've had enough -- that's when they'll come around
(Waiting at the pearly gates)

I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy with your glass half empty
Even though you got your share

Day strains into day like so much water through the tea leaves
What a shame
And there's another call that's not for you
And Kevin there was a reason in the madness, there's a reason in these Lines and
Rhymes, a reason in the curve of time.

I say you made your mark, but you took yourself down
And I hope you got enough, 'cause we're still around
(trying til we get it right)

I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy with your glass half empty
Even though you got your share
I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy with your glass half empty
Even though you got your share....
