Asexual Blues for alto and guitar

Description

This is a humorous sardonic song in a sort of bluesy style for people of all sexualities but expecially asexuals.
Performed in my flat in Chepstow House, Manchester, following its first performance in the New Troubadour Club in 1992, just down the road in the “gay village”.

I went out this mornin’ and what did I see,
a beautiful man was lookin’ at me.
I say “Hey brother, you can look but don’t touch,
‘cos I ain’t got what you need to satisfy your greed”.
I got those asexual blues,
‘cos none of us can choose,
the feelings just rise from the ooze,
and some us of got asexual blues.

I went out this evenin’ as the sun went down,
a pretty young lady was beckoning me to town .
I said “Hey sister, you can look but don’t touch,
‘cos I ain’t got what you need to satisfy your greed”.
I got those asexual blues,
‘cos none of us can choose,
the feelings just rise from the ooze,
and some us of got asexual blues.

I went out this evenin’ out into the dark
and couples were smoochin’ all over the park.
I said “Hey people, you’re just showin’ off,
‘cos you’ve got what you need to satisfy your greed”.
I got those asexual blues,
‘cos none of us can choose,
the feelings just rise from the ooze,
and some us of got asexual blues.

I’ve come out this evening on the musical scene
to sing you the blues like you’ve never seen.
I say “Hey people, you can sing with me now,
‘cos I have got what you need to satisfy your musical greed”.
We got all sorts of sexual blues,
‘cos none of us can choose,
the feelings just rise from the ooze,
and some us of got asexual blues.
