lyrics

Don’t you wonder where Annie went
After the third time they picked her up
No one here has seen her since
And I’ve got an apartment full of her stuff

It feels like yesterday since we saw her face
And her dimples popping out of her smile
Does anyone else here miss her laugh
Didn’t think she’d be gone all this while

Chorus
It’s a late night it’s an early in the morning theme
You don’t know if you’re awake or else you’re asleep
By the time the sun catches you alone in your room
You’re all tangled up in all those bad dreams

Last time I saw Annie she looked so good
Riding downtown on the train
She was the loudest person in the neighborhood
What I wouldn’t give to hear her holler again

Tell me when you’re ready and I’ll start the car
And help you get into your coat
We can take the long way it ain’t that far
And we’ll be home before you know it

Chorus

Annie dear, can you hear my voice
Do you recognize my face
We’ve been sitting here for so many years
You wouldn’t believe how much I’ve aged

about

Charlie Parr Duluth, Minnesota

"Parr is scruffy and uncomfortable looking, with a longish beard and balding head. He dropped out of high school in the 1980s, but he looks older than that. He's pathologically deadpan in his delivery of in between song banter. The crowd really enjoyed his depressingly hilarious dead cat story. He never smiles." - Lucy Steigerwald
