It's always half and half
I'm happy and I'm sad
Everything that's beautifull
Always kills me too
The highest I get up
Is the deepest I get down
You're up there with your life
That's why I gotta shout, shout,
...And then gotta shout, shout
Blues for Meister
You sweet little thing
Blues for Meister
I'm so sad I gotta sing
A cozy little kitty up
sittin' on the couch
Oh, kitty cat, oh, baby
I really miss you now
Well have some respect
For my cat
He got squashed by the wheel
Of a Cadillac
Well, me and my pussy
We lost our flow
Well, goodbye my little calico
Your food's still in the cupboard
Hangin' in its can
You used to love to eat it
Down
I'll always love you Meister
You were so good to me
There's nothing like you nowhere
As far as I can see
I'm happy and I'm sad
Everything that's beautifull
Always kills me too
The highest I get up
Is the deepest I get down
You're up there with your life
That's why I gotta shout, shout,
...And then gotta shout, shout
Blues for Meister
You sweet little thing
Blues for Meister
I'm so sad I gotta sing
A cozy little kitty up
sittin' on the couch
Oh, kitty cat, oh, baby
I really miss you now
Well have some respect
For my cat
He got squashed by the wheel
Of a Cadillac
Well, me and my pussy
We lost our flow
Well, goodbye my little calico
Your food's still in the cupboard
Hangin' in its can
You used to love to eat it
Down
I'll always love you Meister
You were so good to me
There's nothing like you nowhere
As far as I can see
Blues For Meister
Released on the 1991 album *Blood Sugar Sex Magik*, "Blues For Meister" stands as a pivotal track in the Red Hot Chili Peppers' evolution from funk-rock to a more melodic, pop-infused sound. Featuring the iconic guitar solo by Hillel Slovak, the song blends the band's signature groove with a distinct bluesy sensibility, marking a departure from their earlier experimental phases. The track exemplifies the group's ability to harmonize complex rhythms with accessible songwriting, contributing significantly to the album's commercial success and enduring legacy. Its inclusion on a landmark record solidified the band's status as a defining voice of alternative rock in the early 1990s.
