By then I've lived another broken story
To let me down
chorus...
So remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
When half the party moves into the bathroom
Hold me down
Or if you're at the tail end of the evening
And Dr. Feelgood comes around
Any time the pickins look too easy
Hold me down
bridge...
