Story Behind The Song

I simply wrote a song based on all of the off the wall things I have encountered during my life time.

Song Description

The song is an attempt to make sense of the unexplainable things in life.

Lyrics

Ten Shades Of Gray, Lyrics and Music by Al Monte, Verse, When The Night Comes To A Close, As The Saying Goes, There's Not A Thing New Under The Sun, People Rarely Finish What They've Begun, You Can Bank On This Fact, It's Here To Stay, You'll Wind Up Right Back Where You Started, In Ten Shades Of Gray, Verse Any Fool Can Write A Line, Blame The Neighbor For The Decline, Sometimes That Blessing Is A Curse, And The Cab Becomes A Hearse, The Big Print Might Give, But The Fine Print Will Ruin Your Day, You'll Wind Up Right Back Where You Started, In Ten Shades Of Gray. Bridge One, If You Cant Buy, You Better Find A Way To Trade, Though It's Not Your Bill The Amount Must Still Be Paid, This Shouldn't Be A Shock, Take A Walk Around Your Block, You See The Movers And The Shakers, And The Widow Makers, Music, Bridge Two It Shouldn't Take A Miracle, To Read A Simple Sign, But It's Easier For The Blind To See, Than To Open A Closed Mind, You Can't Get Any More Out Of Life Than You Give, And We've All Just Been Granted One Life To Live, Last, So Be Careful What You Wish For Be Aware. Wishes Are Powerful Things, You'll Find They Can Become A Snare. The Best Way To Fail Is To Believe In A Lie, And Success Might Not Be Proof You're Entitled to the Pie, You Need Common Sense To Help You Grasp And To Weigh. The Black And White And In Between, Of The Ten Shades Of Gray.
