T.B. Sheets Lyrics

Cover art for T.B. Sheets lyrics by Van Morrison

"TB Sheets": simply one of the spookiest songs ever written. Man wracked by guilt as he watches his girlfriend die, but still he wants to palm off the responsibility for her onto the radio, or "John" who is supposedly bringing a bottle of wine (as if a young woman slowly suffocating to death from TB would want to drink wine!), or anyone and anything so he can escape the deadly "cool room, fool's room," where the poor emaciated girl is gasping her last breaths. They don't make songs like this anymore, damnit.

i do (:
