and EakEak, for the solo
GI'm sorry Emmama, but CI been drinkin' Gagain.
CMe and the old Gman got us a Dhead start on the wCeekend.
GAnd rest assured tEmonight I'm gonna be in Kevin's Cbasement with all my Gfriends.
ProCvided we can get, Gget our lazy asses Ddown to Bottle King by Cten.
And the wEmalk hGome is gConna be a real shit sGhow.
I'll be Ampickin' up half smoked Gcigarette butts Dall up and down Rock CRoad.
And then tEmhrow uGp in the warm gClow of the traffic lGight.
AmI'm gonna put the Gdevil inside me to sDleep if it takes all Cnight.
So lets get Gfucked Emup, and lets Cpretend we're all oGkay.
And Cif you got something that Gyou can't live with, sDave it for another dCay.
GSave it for aDnother Gday.
GI'm sorry, MEmama, expect a cCall from the neighbors Gtonight
CAll of my asshole budGdies are coming over and they're fDeeling a little too aClright
GI'm sick and tired of everEmyone in this town being so godCdamn uptightG
But Cdon't you worry, I'll Gdo all the talking when they tuDrn on the flashing lCights
When I'm an Emold mGan I Ccan be the quiet tGype
And I Amcan go without a Gmoment of fun fDor the rest of my liCfe
I can read a gEmood boGok and CI can be in bed by tGen
And I can geAmt up early, go to Gwork and come home, Dand start it all over Cagain
But while we're Gyoung, Emboys, everybCody raise your glassGes high
Singing, "Here's Cto the good times, hGere's to the home team KiDss the good times goCodbye
Oh yeah, kGiss the good tDimes goGodbye"
I need a Gtimeout, I need an esCcape from reality
Or else I Dneed eternal darkness and death, I Cneed an exit strategy.
Down in NorGth Carolina I could have been a pCroductive member of society
But these New DJersey cigarettes and all they require have made a fuCcking junkie out of me
So give me a GGuinness, give me a Dkeystone light, give me a Gkegger on a FCriday night.
Give me Ganything, but another Dyear in eCxile -ile, illleee
I need a wGhiskey, I need a wChiskey, I need a Dwhiskey right Cnow!
I need a Gwhiskey, I need a Cwhiskey, God knows Dhow many times I've said this
before, but I Creally don't feel like doing this anymore.
So GAndy lets turn into Ddirty old Gmen. Close down the bar every night at Dthe Glen Rock GInn.
Talk about our grand-kids as we Dstroke our grey Gbeards.
Funny we're Gstill doing car bombs after Dall of these Gyears.
And I Cknow there are bicycles waiting to ride,
But I could Gswear I heard voices on the other side.
Saying Await until you see the Cwhites of their Deyes.
And Gnow that I'm older, I lDook back and sGay
"What the fCuck was it fDor anGyway?"
Those Gdreams are lying in the stDill of the grGave
What the fCuck were they fDor anGyway?
So let it Gbe on a stretcher if I get Dcarried Gaway
What the fCuck was it Dfor aGnyway?C
What the fGuck was it fDor anywGay?
