"Hues of Blue" drops on June 21st! For more information about my 14th studio album, see:
The fifth song (track #5) on the album "Hues of Blue".
A 12-bar blues with harp and amped acoustic lead guitar about the challenge of a flying insect in a home, somehow worsened if there’s only one of these elusive annoyances to deal with.
Lyrics
"One Fly In The House"
Lyrics (and music) written by Scott Cooley. Copyright © 2026 by Scott Richard Cooley and Scott Richard Cooley Music Publishing, ASCAP. All rights reserved.There's one fly in the houseThere's one fly in the houseOn the window or right in front of my faceOn the ceiling or on the table it always escapesGot my swatter raised and I'm ready to pounceThere's one fly in the house
There's one fly in the houseThere's one fly in the houseWanna hush it from buzzin' I'm sick of the soundWanna smash it, trash it, or flush it downIt's drivin' me crazy, almost as much as a mouseThere's one fly in the house
There's one fly in the houseThere's one fly in the houseJust when I think I got it, it always comes backAll I wanna do is swat it, ‘till then I just can’t relaxDon’t look now babe, but it just flew down your blouseThere's one fly in the house
There's one fly in the houseThere's one fly in the houseI’m losing my patience for it to land on the wallThis one’s a demon, must be the lord of them allThought I could kill it, but now I’m having my doubtsThere's one fly in the house
