One Thing (Big Band Version) Lyrics by Ellen Winter

36 Questions: The Deluxe Album

2021

[Verse 1]
One thing
I came out here for one thing
And that little bitty one thing
Was to forget about you
But I guess I learned something
There's never really one thing
'Cause pretty quickly one thing
Evolves into two, or three, or more
For example
See the light in the hallway?
It was always flickering
Ever since I was little
It was always flickering
After three days here, it was unbearable
[Chorus 1]
My list grew
Two, I fix the light bulb
And one, forget about you (forget about it)
You (forget about it)
You (forget about it)
You (forget about it)
[Verse 2]
Drove to town, I bought a bulb
One of those new LEDs
Brought it home, I put it in
But the wires weren't connecting
Suddenly, they went on the fritz
[Chorus 2]
My list grew
Three, rewire the ceiling
Two, I fix the lightbulb
And one, forget about you (forget about it)
You (forget about it)
You (forget about it)
You (forget about it)
[Verse 3]
So I went to the attic
And to my utmost delight
There it is, black mold
Killing us slowly each night
And I feel it's my duty to remove it
[Chorus 3]
My list grew
Four, I kill the black mold
Three, rewire the ceiling
Two, I fix the lightbulb
And one, forget about you (forget about it)
You (forget about it)
You (forget about it)
Forget about you
(spoken)
Take it away, Henry
(sung)
(Forget about it)
(spoken)
Look at that duck go
(sung)
(Forget about it)
(Forget about it)
(Forget about it)
[Verse 4]
See the tarp in the hallway?
That used to be a gallery wall
Lots of pictures, super classy
Sad I had to make the call, but
In trying to fix one thing, I made everything worse
[Chorus 4]
My list grew
Nine, buy new cement
Eight, take care of this duck I found
Seven, clean out the pipes for the bathroom and the kitchen
Six, rebuild the wall
Five, keep out the pests
Four, I kill the black mold
Three, rewire the ceiling
Two, fix the lightbulb
And one, forget about you (forget about it)
You, you, you, you (forget about it)
You, you, you, you (forget about it)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, forget about (forget about it)
You (forget about it)
You, you, you, you, you (forget about it)
Oh yeah (forget about it)
Oh yeah, I know I can't (forget about it)
I know I can't forget about you
I can't forget about you
Forget about you
