Yes, I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes

You'd know what a drag it is to see you

One of the best ‘screw you’ songs.

Through 86 years of perpetual motion
If he likes you, he’ll smile and say,
“Well, Jimmy, some of it’s magic
And some of it’s tragic,
But I had a good life all the way.”

He went to Paris, looking for answers,
To questions that bothered him so

Sittin' here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone.

I wouldn’t say “favorite,” but I think the best and saddest are from John Prine:

There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes
Jesus Christ died for nothin' I suppose
Little pitchers have big ears
Don't stop to count the years
Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios

I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah

Think I forgot how to be happy
Something I’m not,
but something I can be
Something I wait for
Something I’m made for

Billie Eilish - What Was I Made For?
