Danny Michel is a singer-songwriter based just outside Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Born in 1970 and raised in Kitchener, Ontario , he began his professional career playing with the Rhinos before beginning a solo career. In the late 1990s, he moved to Ottawa, where he developed a loyal following with a weekly show at the Manx Pub on Elgin St. In his live shows, he often uses looped live samples of his guitar and other instruments to create a richly layered solo performance. While at the Manx he often entertained with cover versions of songs by some of his favourite artists, including David Bowie, Elvis Costello, Tom Waits, and the Rheostatics.

Last Straw Lyrics

Danny Michel

The sun goes up, and the sun goes down,
you're a different colour every night.
And you put yourself, into it.
You put all your weight on it,
in hopes that you might get a chance, to be heard.
Someone's listening, while you keep screaming,
and the sun goes up, and the sun goes down.
No one's listening, no one's listening, to you.
This is your last straw,
this is your last swing and
This is your last straw,
this ain't worth anything.
The moon goes up, and the moon goes down,
you're a different colour every night.
But it's too much, it's too much for you.
So you say "Well fuck you,
I'm going back to S-S-Sault Ste Marie,
with or without, you and your big big mouth
and all its big big words, again.
Never again, will I listen, will I listen to you."
This is your last straw,
this is your last swing and
This is your last straw,
this ain't worth anything.
