lyrics

All of my friends have gone away
Into pearls in clams below
And heavens maze

The hubris of our youth has cast us down
But the brand of our denial keeps us sound

So I could use a drink
I surely think

Well it looks like we’ve placed ninth!
SO GRAB ME A FUCKING PINT
FOR MY LAST CHEER!

I’m thinking Valhalla will shake
Under the weight of our fair gaze
And when you go Ill wave goodbye
AND STAY RIGHT HERE!

So send me a pint!
And a couple shots for after.
And some whiskey to wash it down
And enough rum to fill the rafters

Don’t you DARE call me a drunk
I’m just a man out on the run
From a pretty little girl called life
After a few rounds I’m free of strife
I’ll fly so painfully close to the sun
But my wings have only just begun
A dozen wise men nibbling at my heels
Pickin dirt off of their last meal
So don’t you CRY OUT for me!
We’ll make it by on the skin of our teeth
And when the bar has just closed down
I won’t be naive enough to frown

Put my head up and sing about the day
When my friends did go away
INTO THAT MAZE!



...and pearls…
….and clams….
…..someone get me some Advil…..
…….and coffee, good heavens my head…..
