"Drinkin'"

I take some time to drink some wine 
and take my problems off my mind 
although I know they haven’t really 
gone away...

There waiting in reality
a place they call sobriety 
but right now that place seems so far away
and I ain’t foolin’ nobody but Whore-Hay
That’s Me!

When I’m opening up an MD 20/20
all of my problems seem so funny to me
that’s ok we’re just having a good time.
Sitting here in a drunken stupor
looking like shit but I’m feeling super-duper
sitting happy in the sunshine
a happy-sap here in the sunshine
That’s Me!

Can’t you see that I am happy now,
even if just for a little while.
But I know that this is killing me 
I gotta find better way to smile

Well I know what you’re probably thinkin’
there’s a lot of better things to do than drinkin’
“life’s to short to waste on times that 
you can’t recall.”
A year ago I would agree
but I’ve been so depressed lately
I’m feeling like I’m up against a wall
so I bow down to the god of alcohol
That’s Me!

Can’t you tell that I am happy now,
even if just for a little while.
But I know that this is killing me
I gotta find a safer way to smile
